There will be lots of time for questions and exchange of ideas.
Everyone welcome! No one is too young or too old to explore the world by bicycle (tricycle, recumbent...)!
The event is FREE to the public
Enjoy a bicycle ride with the St. George Bicycle Collective, and then experience a fun, all levels yoga practice with Rachel Cieslewicz!

Bike Ride starting @ the St. George Bicycle Collective 9 AM - 10 AM
We’ll roll out from the Bicycle Collective at 9 AM sharp and do a short loop to get our heart rates up before our yoga session.

Yoga for Cyclists @ Yoga Soul 10:15 AM - 11:15 AM.
Please bring a yoga mat, if you can. Rachel only has a few for us to borrow. Mats can be dropped off at the studio before the ride or picked up at the Collective right after the ride. Yoga Soul and the Bicycle Collective are located less than a block apart.
Sign up here through Rachel’s system, which is linked with her studio in Salt Lake City, normal drop-in fees ($15) apply, students with memberships or passes can use those as usual.

We believe that 30 minutes on the bike each day is enough to unwind, feel free, and is crucial to our happiness. So why not build a nice routine?
EVERY WEDNESDAY 12 PM - 1 PM
We will ride from the Collective to Sandtown Park - just down the street - for BYO lunch picnic. We hope to provide a space for folks to get outside and socialize for 45 mins during their workday. Everyone's gotta eat lunch, why not do it together under the red rock? It's our intention to keep this under an hour so commuters and 9-5ers can get away from the desk on their lunch break, stretch their legs, and chat with other Collective supporters. We will roll out from the Collective at 12:10p and leave the park to be back to our respective work places by 1p.
This ride is family friendly. Pack your little ones in a trailer and enjoy lunch with us while they play in the park. If you bring young kids on their own bikes, you must be comfortable with them riding along Diagonal street and on a slight uphill grade. Everyone must wear helmets!
Please bring your own lunch, water, flat tire repair, etc. We hope to see you out there!

Eagle Scout Projects for the Ogden Bicycle Collective
The Ogden Bicycle Collective would be happy to be the beneficiary of your Eagle Scout Project!
Please read our general Eagle Scout Project page first.
BIKE DRIVES:
The most common project is hosting a bike drive. The scout is responsible for planning and implementing project logistics and coordinating volunteers to gather unused or unwanted bicycles. The scout and volunteers will then pick up bikes (a large trailer is helpful), and arrange with Bicycle Collective staff to drop them off at our Community Bike Shop. The scout and volunteers will also need to help us sort and organize donated bikes.
These bikes will be refurbished and given away to homeless, refugees, and low-income individuals; sold to fund our programs; or stripped and recycled. The average project should plan to yield between 50 and 150 bicycles.
Please contact our Volunteer Coordinator at or 801-997-0336 to find out if a bike drive is a current need and arrange a time to discuss your Eagle Project!
OTHER PROJECTS:
Eagle Scouts are encouraged to present other projects they feel would be helpful to the Ogden Bicycle Collective, however they are subject to staff approval.
Some current needs that may be fitting for an Eagle Scout Project:
-Obtaining funding for, and planning and constructing of a handicap/wheelchair ramp (this would include researching applicable ordinances and regulations, including ADA guidelines, and getting appropriate approvals)
-Helping to obtain funding for and planning additional storage for the Community Bike Shop (this would include researching applicable ordinances and regulations, and getting appropriate approvals)
-Organizing a donation drive based off of our donation wish list and any additional needs identified by staff
Please contact our Volunteer Coordinator at or 801-997-0336 to discuss your Eagle Scout Project Proposal and get approval before completing.

Hey everyone! We believe that 30 minutes on the bike each day is enough to unwind, feel free, and is crucial to our happiness. So why not build a nice routine? We've been wanting to get a shop ride started for some time here, and thought it'd be nice to keep it simple and start small.
We will ride from the Collective to Sandtown Park - just down the street - for BYO lunch picnic. We hope to provide a space for folks to get outside and socialize for 45 mins during their workday. Everyone's gotta eat lunch, why not do it together under the red rock? It's our intention to keep this under an hour so commuters and 9-5ers can get away from the desk on their lunch break, stretch their legs, and chat with other Collective supporters. We will roll out from the Collective at 12:15p and leave the park to be back to our respective work places by 1p.
Please bring your own lunch, water, flat tire repair, etc. We hope to see you out there!

The SLC Bicycle Collective is hiring Bicycle Valet Coordinators for the 2018 season! Are you a people person? Do you enjoy festivals, concerts, and other community events? Do you support the Bicycle Collective's mission and want to help promote it? If so, this may be the job for you!
See the link below for the full job description.
On Saturday, March 24th, dozens of children lined up to receive a free bicycle from Provo Bicycle Collective.
Within one hour, PBC had given all 53 bikes to children for free.
Our hope is that each bike recipient uses his or her bike to get to school each day and continues that habit into adulthood. This way, we can reduce traffic, clean Utah's air, and create a healthier population.
We need your support in this cause!
Donate money or bikes today. $30 provides a bike for a child in need! Please give today!
