OLD SPOKES HOME
Old Spokes Home is a bike shop and a nonprofit organization creating access to bikes and the opportunities they provide for Vermonters. Old Spokes Home uses bicycles as a means to create affordable transportation, job training opportunities, and youth empowerment. The Community Workshop (formerly known as Bike Recycle Vermont) offers the Everybody Bikes Program, which recycles and refurbishes donated bicycles and sells them at low cost to income-eligible Vermonters. Also provides repair services, parts, and accessories. In addition, the Community Workshop offers educational opportunities, apprenticeships, job training programs, and a youth drop-in program.
