Donate a Bike, Change a Life

Bike Buddies is the Columbia Gorge’s “free bikes for kids” non-profit bike shop.

What we offer

Free Bikes

We give free bikes to caregivers and children who need them.

For single adults, we only work with Bridges to Change, Next Door, and other non-profits.

Bikes for Sale

We often get specialty mountain, city, and road bikes for kids and adults. If your child needs a bigger size or you want to try road or mountain biking, contact us or see our bikes for sale.

Parts for free or sale

We have a bike-parts library — most items are free or donation-based.

Why We Pedal

We believe that every child who wants a bike, should own one. Since 2015, we have donated 100s of bikes to families in need.
