One person’s trash is another’s sweet ride! Transportation’s popular Bike Recycling Day returns on Saturday, April 8, to the northwest corner of the Parking Structure 8 rooftop from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Members of the UCLA community with a valid BruinCard will have an opportunity to receive a used bike or bike parts for free.
Available bikes have been repurposed from being abandoned or impounded on campus. Recycling abandoned bikes supports UCLA Transportation’s commitment to sustainability and making bicycling more accessible to the campus community.
Those wishing to participate in Bike Recycling Day must register by Sunday, April 2. Due to the limited number of bikes, participants will be randomly selected and assigned a time slot. Participants need to be present when their time slot begins to claim their bike. Those not selected for a time slot will receive a special bike offer.
Approximately 65 bikes or parts that equal bikes will be available. Some bikes are stripped down to their frame but offer an excellent opportunity for those interested in building their own bike from the ground up.
