From our swap to a child’s hands!
We supply the bike donations from our events, Chinook Kiwanis volunteers provide the expert repairs, & together we provide reliable rides to local social service agencies for children in need.
That's how you build a community and a circular economy at the same time!

Mountains, bikes, and community! 🏔️🚲

Honoured to partner with Community Cruisers. They’re making the Bow Valley more accessible and sustainable by getting locals on affordable, refurbished rides. That's the circular economy in action!

Ditch the car, grab a Bunch!🚲

Proud to partner with @bunchbike.com to promote the cargo bike revolution. Our 15 years of data shows 22% of Alberta Bike Swap bikes are daily commuters—cargo bikes make that transition possible for the whole family!

More than a swap—it’s a mission. 🚲🧠

Proud to partner with Branch Out Neurological Foundation.

With both founders living with #MS, we know firsthand that cycling is vital for brain health. Supporting neuro-research, one pedal stroke at a time!

Thank you! I did pharmacy back when people were chewing on roots and some supplements boost an already faulty immune system. This is a good article and I thank you for sharing.
