What Our Community Thinks:

 

“I really like watching the families who come in for bikes. They all have smiles on their faces.”

Utica Observer-Dispatch, March 2020

“Community Bikes relies on volunteers and on donations of bikes and other resources from the community, to serve our neighbors in Madison County.”

Utica Observer-Dispatch, January 2020

“For each Bike Day, volunteers go through what the applicant wants to use the bike for, and guide them to what's best for them. Recipients are given an opportunity to test-ride their bike.”

“With their new bikes, kids get exercise and do things with their families that don’t cost money,.”

The Syracuse Post-Standard, March 2019

“In addition to providing our residents with recreational opportunities, these bikes show our youth the important concepts of recycling and re-use.”

NYS OCFS, June 2012

“Even though Bike Day is scheduled, donations are needed and welcomed year-round!”

New Haven Register, April 2012

“Community Bikes has placed more than 250 bikes with families in Madison County this year.”

“I think it is gratifying all the way around, for the people who work on it, and for the people who get bikes.”
