Ōtaki Bike Space
Repairing and giving away donated bikes
Since 2017, the Ōtaki Bike Space has been accepting pre-loved bikes from the community, repairing them and re-gifting them. Children can swap out their bikes as they grow!
Volunteers donate their time to fix bikes and to teach simple repairs and road safety skills.
Why?
Encouraging everyone who wants to ride a bike and more mobility for all ages
Reducing use of fossil fuels – e.g. kids biking to school rather than being delivered by car.
Promoting the benefits of bike transport
- Better for the environment and health
- It saves money
Diverting recyclable waste from landfill
Connecting bike lovers together.
Ōtaki Bike Space is supported by New World Ōtaki.
