What Goes Around Comes Around at the Bicycle ReCyclery


Behind us, people of all ages are fixing and assembling bikes. It's shop day at the Jefferson County (Washington) ReCyclery. Founder Chauncey Tudhope-Locklear and Board President Kees Kolff explain how opportunities exploded when the Recylery became a non-profit organization. There's a youth Earn-a-Bike program where kids can volunteer a number of hours and then build their own bike from donated parts. The Borrow-a-Bike program lets anyone pay what they can afford to borrow a bike, helmet and lock. The ReCyclery partnered with the school district to offer a "Step On It" campaign in the schools to promote safe walking and biking, and leads two mountain bike teams for young people. Chauncey advises "For anyone who has a dream that can benefit their community — breathe life into it…. It only takes one person to start something that has far-reaching influence." Chauncey has done just that. Episode 295.
