Get started at Bike Works
by joining Junior Earn a Bike (ages 7-8) or Earn a Bike (ages 9-18). Once involved, you'll have access to all of our programs until you graduate high school. Programs are offered at our downtown Allentown and East Allentown bike shops and in schools in Allentown and Bethlehem. All programs are free!
Earn a Bike
Earn a Bike connects youth ages 9-18 with mentors to learn lessons in bike mechanics and safety. While learning tool use, bike repair, and safe riding, students also practice life skills including communication, teamwork, and perseverance. When students complete the program, they earn their refurbished bike and a new helmet!
Junior Earn a Bike
In Junior Earn a Bike, second- and third-graders practice social-emotional learning while learning about reading, riding, and wrenching. Junior Earn a Bike students learn that, just as building a bike requires tools and parts, building a healthy emotional life requires social and emotional tools they can learn to use. At the end of the program, students earn their bike, a new helmet, and several books!
