About us

Our mission

The Tampa Bay Bike Co-Op is a community run, non-profit organization that wants to give more access to its community in many forms. We focus on reusing and repairing old bicycles and parts donated by the community and returning them to those in need.

We also see the importance and empowerment of educating others on how to repair/maintain their human powered vehicle.

We are not a bike shop. We do not do drop-off repairs or sell new bikes, but we do have access to a full range of tools to help visitors work on their bicycle and volunteers on hand with mechanical knowledge to help you learn.

The Tampa Bay Bike Co-Op believes in making cycling education and repair available and accessible to all. By promoting do-it-yourself ethos in alternative modes of transportation, we hope to support a community of people helping people, and therefore ultimately helping themselves.

Donate

Our operation runs off of the volunteer power and donations from you! Everything from the dusty old bike in your garage that needs a home to old bike parts are taken and put to good use. We build up these bikes and donate them to a variety of organizations in the area. If you have a donation to make or charity in mind that could use bicycles please get in touch.
