You Can Ride 2 volunteer opportunities
You Can Ride 2 (YCR2) is an EBC program that helps kids with special needs ride bikes. We have opportunities for mechanics and anyone else to volunteer both for our Learn to Ride service and our Adapted Bike Loan Pool service.
You Can Ride 2: Learn to Ride
This service helps kids with special needs master the skills needed to ride a two-wheeled bicycle. For 2016, it runs on Thursday evenings from April 28th until June 9th.
We need one mechanic to safety check, adjust saddles, take pedals off, and occasionally fix things. We need lots of enthusiastic cyclists or people who work well with children to help teach the kids. You'll be trained on-the-spot with help from our returning volunteers. It's easily the most rewarding volunteer work I've ever done!
To volunteer or ask questions, send Molly, EBC Program Coordinator, an email: [email protected]
You Can Ride 2: Adapted Bike Loan Pool
We partner cyclists with pediatric physiotherapists and occupational therapists to help children with disabilities ride a bike that's specially adapted for their needs. We have a loan pool of 120 adapted bikes for kids who can't ride two-wheeled bikes and often cannot ride an off-the-shelf adaptive bike without additional modifications and adjustments specific to the child.
Biomechanics meets bike fit meets really happy children!
Here are the events we need your help with:
- Friday, March 4, 2016. Try A Bike day at École Broxton Park School (505 McLeod Ave, Spruce Grove)
- Saturday, March 5, 2016. Mechanical repair day at École Broxton Park School
- Sunday, March 6, 2016. Fitting day 1 at École Broxton Park School
- Saturday, April 9, 2016. Fitting day 2 at location TBD
Events are in these locations in order to serve kids with special needs. Car pooling can be arranged.
Click here to volunteer for the YCR2 Adapted Bike Loan Pool service. If you're interested in supporting these services but aren't sure about how you can best help, including any questions about volunteering, please email Molly at [email protected].

You Can Ride 2: Borrow-a-Bike is a program that loans adapted bicycles to children whose special needs make it challenging for them to ride a 2-wheel bicycle. This free service empowers children with the freedom to ride with their families.
We are in great need of volunteers: no special skills or experience is required.
Friday is our Try-a-Bike Day, an opportunity for individuals (of all ages) with disabilities to learn about a variety of adaptive cycling options available. We will have several bikes from our loan pool available for people to trial, as well as vendors with their own demos.
On Sunday March 8, registered children will be fit to bikes specifically adapted to their needs.
We urgently need volunteers for both events. We certainly need mechanics (no prior experience with adapted bicycles is necessary), but you don't need to be technical: we also need greeters, a photographer, people to help with inventory, and even someone to prepare lunch.
There are additional roles that we need help with in the days following, as well as for future bike fitting days. Please go to our volunteer sign-up sheet to see the available roles.
