New Volunteer Orientation!
Please complete this form to register for a 2-part orientation to become a Bikes Together volunteer bicycle mechanic! No previous experience necessary. Snacks provided. We ask that you attend all 3 nights. Each night will include information about Bikes Together, chances to get to know fellow volunteers, a mini mechanics lesson, and hands-on practice. By the end of it, we hope you will feel connected, supported, and excited to sign up for regular volunteer shifts at Bikes Together to continue your bike mechanics skill-building and join this community of weirdos who love to recycle bicycles, share knowledge, and build a welcoming and empowering bicycle culture in Denver. This orientation is open to the all-gender public, with priority given to Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.
Volunteers who commit to at least 5 shifts after orientation receive significant shop discounts.

Your health & safety is important! These orientations will take place indoors at the Bikes Together Mariposa workshop. The shop is equipped with portable HEPA filters. Masks are optional. All staff are vaccinated against COVID-19. We hope volunteers will be vaccinated + boosted but we do not require it. We ask that volunteers please DO NOT COME IN if you are experiencing symptoms of any kind, and we require that volunteers sign in at volunteer shifts so we can track who has been here in case of contact-tracing. Do you agree to these COVID-safety protocols?
