The year as an expansion of our partnership with Evanston Bicycle Club’s North Shore Century, we’ve joined on as a Charity Partner! Recyclery patrons, friends and volunteers can choose to donate part of their registration fee and have it go directly to the shop to help fund our programs. Below you can find the steps and links to do so. Happy riding and we hope to see you all there!

STEP 1: Make a $5 donation to the shop HERE that includes a registration discount code, reducing the registration fee from $40 (the early bird price) to $36. Donating $25 will include a Recyclery T-shirt that you can pick up at the shop!

STEP 2: Wait up to one business day to receive an email that includes your discount code. This is done manually, so please be patient!

Step 3: Use that discount code at the registration link provided on THIS PAGE.

Step 4: Show up Sunday, September 15th 2024 and RIDE! We plan on having a small gathering at the start of the ride, so keep an eye out for an email and Instagram post when we get closer to the 15th!

We’re excited to announce The Recyclery Collective’s 7th annual Tailwind For Tools Fundraiser!

From October 8th to December 31st of 2023, we will be hosting a series of charity events to help keep our shop lights on and our community programs running smoothly. While sales of refurbished bikes covers a significant portion of our operating expense, your financial support can help us improve operations and empower more people to ride bikes!

If you would like to donate, click “Donate” below or check out our GiveButter page here!

Thanks to new volunteers and hosts, we are able to offer another Open Shop session Tuesdays from 5pm to 7pm. To make room, Tuesday Volunteer Hours have been moved to Mondays 5:30pm to 7:30pm. We are slowly getting back to the level of programming we offered prior to the COVID-induced shutdown. By way of reminder, Open Shop is where you can bring in your own bike and get guidance from volunteer bike mechanics and use our shop tools.

Thank you to Tom, Dana and all unnamed volunteers for your help!
