ReCranked
21 August
ReCranked is Y Ballarat’s bike recycling program which is supported by Brydie Collins one of our awesome Year 11 students. ReCranked is where anyone can be gifted a bike (+ helmet + bike lock) and will be fitted up for wheels that suit their age, height, and riding experience. There is NO eligibility criteria – these bikes are for everyone and anyone. The sustainable program produces little waste where all the rubber and metal are recycled. Bikes that need a little bit of fixing are fixed, and unusable bikes are taken apart and are reused for parts to make new bikes where an amazing team of volunteers spruce them up and make sure they’re ready to hit the road again, like new. They’re all refurbed bikes that have been donated that are looking for new riders so please come in!
Donations of unused or old bikes are always welcome! The team is especially looking for unused or old bikes suitable for teenagers or adults.
ReCranked is located at 1 Holly Grove, Wendouree in the new community hub. They’re open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 2-5pm.
