This will be the first time I've been on a bike since my Achillies surgery in June but it's important to me to be able to support the kids at Community Bike Works.
My goal is to ride an average of 3 miles a day. That might not be much but I'm excited to get back out there.
Will you support my efforts?

Community Bike Works 2022 Cycle Challenge
*** THANK YOU to everyone involved in making the 2022 Cycle Challenge possible - We were able to raise over $100,000 for youth bike mentoring! While the in-person events are over, we extended the event timeline so any donations that still come through PledgeReg in October will go towards our youth bike mentoring programs, helping us teach kids across the Lehigh Valley bike mechanics and how to ride. Thank you to our sponsors, riders, and Challenge members, and we look forward to riding with you again in 2023!! ***
Community Bike Works and Lehigh Valley Health Network are thrilled to present the 2022 Cycle Challenge, which encourages members of our community to get active in supporting the young people of Community Bike Works.
This year's 12-day challenge lasted from Thursday, September 22 to Monday, October 3. From October 4 to October 12, we are fundraising to meet our ambitious $100,000 goal!
You can donate to a specific team or individual in the challenge. We offer prizes for the top fundraisers, but everyone here is winning by contributing to Community Bike Works’ Earn a Bike Program! If you don’t know anyone in the challenge, consider donating to one of the three Bike Works Student Teams. You can also “Donate to this Organization.”
Questions? Please contact us at 610-355-4864 or [email protected] if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you for your support,
The Community Bike Works Event Team
Community Bike Works teaches life lessons through bicycles to the young people of the Lehigh Valley who could benefit most.
- We offer high-quality mentoring programs that use bicycles and books to connect youth with adult and peer mentors who can teach them skills that help them succeed.
- In order to help students reach their full potential, we offer additional resources and partner with organizations to help strengthen students’ families and the community.
- In all we do, we seek to give students and families a meaningful voice in our work. We strive to be an organization of racial and economic justice and equality, not charity.
Through our Earn a Bike and Junior Earn a Bike programs, we connect students with mentors and lessons in bike mechanics and safety. At the end of the program, students earn their bike and a helmet, and are invited to take part in our afterschool and summer enrichment programs.
