HUB Cycling’s mission is to get more people cycling more often, but we can make progress thanks to our sponsors and supporters like Cycle City.

Our Spring 2024 Bike to School season is fast approaching, and Cycle City has kindly offered their mechanics services to assess and tune up HUB Cycling's fleet of 100 bikes so that students can experience the joy of cycling this spring. (Not surprisingly, the fleet needed attention after 17,363 students participated in the 2023 Bike to School courses!)

As a non-profit organization, our funds are limited, and we greatly appreciate Cycle City’s generosity to HUB in donating $6,550 worth of mechanic labor. They’ll be making many students happy this spring!

Cycle City is no stranger to HUB Cycling and has long supported our Fall and Spring Go by Bike Weeks. Their mechanics provide free bike tune-ups at many of our Celebration Stations during the semi-annual event.

Cycle City’s one-stop shop is centrally located and features retail, service, tours, and rentals. If you’re in the market for a new bike, they carry a wide range of commuter, road, youth, and electric bikes from popular brands such as Specialized, Kona, Fuji, Brodie, Norco, and more. They also have a great selection of cycling accessories like helmets, bags, tools, helmets, locks, and pumps.

Their tours are perfect for locals and visitors who want to experience the city's diverse culture and rich history. With top-notch guides, you’ll have fun exploring the city's hidden gems, iconic landmarks, and unique neighborhoods. And if you’re looking for rentals, look no further than Cycle City's well-maintained fleet of city bikes, e-bikes, road bikes, tandems, and more.
