In partnership with Green4Good and the Village of River Forest Sustainability Commission

Bike Exchange Location: Roosevelt Middle School Playground

Early Drop Off Location: 730 Lathrop Avenue, RF

There are four ways to participate in the 5th Annual RFCBX:

  1. Bring a bike or bike accessory that has been outgrown or is no longer in use and drop it off and exchange it for another bike. Yay!
  2. Bring a bike or bike accessory that has been outgrown or is no longer in use and donate it to the event. Thank you so much!
  3. Bring yourself and a donation (cash, Venmo or Zelle) and leave with your new-used bike or bike accessory! Another yay!
  4. Bring your bike and register it with the Village of RF Police Department and get your license sticker right then and there. Pretty great!

To make this event the most successful, it is highly encouraged to drop off your bike for early drop off so that we can have the bikes tuned up, cleaned, sorted and ready to go for the start of the event.  Early drop off is April 5-11 at 730 Lathrop Avenue any time of day.  When you drop off a bike, you will log it so that when you arrive at the event, we will know that you have already donated. Additionally, you can show up with a bike to exchange on the day of the event.

In addition to kids' bikes, adult sized bikes are always very popular too -- the more the merrier!
