The Bike Station Edinburgh

The Bike Station Edinburgh Everything starts with a bike. The Bike Station envisions a Scotland where cycling for people and for the planet is the norm.

We are creating communities where kids, young people and adults are healthier and more connected and our planet is respected.

In August extreme rain flooded our basement. Our incredible team managed to rebuild and re-open after just eight days- but an empty workshop in August counts for a lot:
~ 30% fewer bikes refurbished than last month
~ 40% fewer people getting onto new bikes from our shop
and that means thousands of pounds in revenue which isn't supporting our communities work, too.

We want to raise £10,000 to support all our work, in our shops and in the community, despite a very difficult August. Your donation, big or small, will be hugely appreciated!

Here at the Bike Station, we believe everything starts with a bike. And donated bikes are the foundation of everything we do! We love giving bikes a new life by refurbishing and selling them, but we also rely on donated bikes to support our community activities: Kids Bike Life, our free Wee Bike Library, and more.
If you like what we do, why not donate your old bike to help support all of our work?

Schools are going back soon... how do the holidays always go so fast?
We can't wait to jump back into our Kids Bike Life activities with local schools: bring on the bike buses, free cycle training to children and adults, bike maintenance and more!
We couldn't do our Kids Bike Life programme without donated bikes of all sizes. Thinking of getting rid of a bike? Donate it to us so we can keep supporting local kids to discover the magic of cycling!

August is one of the busiest months for us at the Bike Station - and we love seeing so many people wanting to cycle in the summer!
If you love it too, why not donate a bike to help satisfy that Autumn demand? Your used bike could have a whole new life, and donating it to us to resell also helps us to provide our community programmes removing barriers to cycling.
