Recycle-A-Bicycle is a unique treasure in New York City, a mission-driven organization promoting sustainable transportation and youth bike education -- and a community-based bike shop. In partnership with a variety of city government and other nonprofits, Recycle-A-Bicycle promotes access to affordable bicycles all around the city. This organization is the best place in the city to donate your old bike to ensure that someone else -- especially a young person who could not afford a bike -- can experience the joy of cycling.
