Green Chile Bike Bank collects donated bicycles, repairs them, and distributes them to community members in need. Our goal is to increase access to affordable transportation, reduce environmental impact, and foster community connections through bike programs.

Since our founding, we’ve provided hundreds of bikes to individuals who rely on them for commuting, school, and recreation—making mobility accessible and sustainable for everyone.

Our entirely volunteer-run organization collects donated bikes to provide mobility solutions for those in need, promoting access and sustainability in our communities.

We are proud to live and work in a community so filled with resources and resourceful people as Pueblo. We are a mixture of people born and raised here and those arrived more recently, but we are all glad to call it home. Our efforts to build up the community are part of that appreciation.

  • Wow, our first update of 2025 and the year is almost over!

    It has been a busy year for all of us here at the GCBB. We had some incredible donations this year and ended up with a cabinet’s worth of thrown-proof tubes that have been a big hit, countless bicycles given to us, fixed up, and given out, a very fun fundraiser at Walter’s (we’ll share event photos soon on the Our Events link at the top of the page), and even some expansion (we’ll make a whole post about this in the future, don’t worry)! Not to mention a website overhaul, if you haven’t already noticed.

    We’re looking to end the year out strong and are hoping you would like to help. We are putting together stockings for our clients with things that will help them through the winter. Whether you want to swing by the shop with hot hands and warm items or shoot us a small PayPal donation to help through the link on our Our Needs page, everything helps.

    We even still have some black and hi-vis green t-shirts left with our new logo that you can grab with a $25 donation right now, so come check us out!

  • Looking out for our client’s winter needs.

    As the weather takes a turn for the cold, we have compiled a list of needs for our clients as well as some shop necessities.
