To provide a program wherein volunteers can advance their bicycle repair and maintenance skills. To fund program expenses through donations, grants, sale of bicycles and fees for services.

Bike Athens Bicycle Recycling Program, a cooperative venture with local social support agencies, distributes reconditioned bikes to individuals in the Athens community who are underserved by private and public transportation. We rely exclusively on volunteers to recondition the bikes. We have refurbished over 1000 bicycles since our program started in 2001.
