Our Club's annual service and fundraising event, Canberra BuyCycle will be held in October at the fitters Workshop, Kingston. As we get a little closer to the time, we will let you know the details but for those involved previously, it involves all our club members in a variety of ways. We need to advertise the event, collect bicycles, organise the bits and pieces and then be on deck for the actual weekend event. It is all good fun, provides a good service to the community and raises some funds for our club.
All types of bikes can be listed for sale on the Canberra BuyCycle website in advance of the event - road bikes, mountain bikes, hybrids, e-bikes, cargo bikes, tandems - you name it, you can list it. Bikes must be less than 15 years old and in good working condition. A $5 fee is charged to list a bike and the Club will take 15% of sale proceeds to use for local community projects. this could include the Ruby's House for Vulnerable Youth project, local school support to encourage STEM interest and the Rotary International Student Exchange Program.
