About Bicycle Cooperative of Fort Collins, Inc.
The Bicycle Cooperative of Fort Collins (Fort Collins Bike Co-op) is a volunteer-run, community-owned nonprofit bicycle shop founded in 2003 and incorporated as a 501(c)(3). It operates a retail/repair shop, open-shop learning sessions, and an Earn‑A‑Bike program that refurbishes donated and unclaimed bikes for community use.
The Co-op partners with the City of Fort Collins on found-and-abandoned bike recovery, runs regular public programs and volunteer work nights, and uses retail and donation revenue to sustain its education, recycling, and donation activities. In recent years (2022–2024) it continued running Open Shop, Earn‑A‑Bike, and community outreach while participating in local events such as Fort Collins Bike to Work Day.
