Wheels for Winners is back!

We are reopening on Monday, June 22nd! We fully understand that it may not be easy to find volunteer opportunities that would help earn a bike with our organization. That is why we are committed to flexibility with our requirements for earning bikes. If you know someone who needs a bike, contact us to see what we can do to get them on a bike—even if they may not have met the 15 hours of volunteer service requirement.

We will also be following new procedures to protect the health of our volunteers and our visitors. Please view the video demonstrating our COVID19 policies in action.  Our volunteer mechanics will be wearing masks and following other practices such as frequent hand sanitizing. For your safety and ours, we are also asking that all visitors do the following:

  • If it all possible, use our contact page or give us a call to schedule an appointment to come to the shop.

  • Practice social distancing and maintain at least 6 feet from any visitor or staff member where possible.

  • Bring a face mask when coming to the shop. If you don't have one, we can provide a disposal mask.

  • Be prepared to interact with our Wheels for Winners volunteers outside the shop. 

  • If circumstances warrant, only one bike earner or other visitor may enter the shop.

  • Please make your own adjustments to properly fit helmets.

We look forward to welcoming you back and continuing the work of providing bikes and repairing bikes for those that want to ride.

Wheels for Winners cares deeply for our Madison community that we have served for nearly 30 years.

Wheels supports the urgent and essential work being done to combat structural racism and the inequities it causes. We support every person's access to basic human rights, their right to dignity, safety and independence, and we support the many people and groups working to advance the cause of equity and justice. For every person in our communities who hurts today, we know this isn't new and it isn't going away unless real changes are made, and we'll be here to see this happen.

Wheels for Winners is committed to a future where all people in Madison can feel the joy of being happy and safe on two wheels on any street they choose to ride. Through our work with cycling, we hope we are contributing to this vision. Stay safe and demand a better tomorrow.
