Memorial High Bike Club students and teacher Stella Wu help repair bikes at a Wheels free bike repair event Wheels’ volunteers Jonny, Ben and Nivali work with Madison high school bike clubs teaching students how to maintain and repair bikes. The students get valuable technical and teamwork skills.
We’ve been busy refurbishing bikes, providing bikes to earners, doing repair events all around Madison and Dane County, Wisconsin, and training new volunteer mechanics.
Meet our newest mechanics as they complete their first bike rebuilds!
We are recruiting for volunteer mechanics, specifically Wednesdays 4 - 6 PM and Fridays 10 AM - Noon, Noon - 2 PM or 10 AM - 2 PM. We will train you. Find our application at https://wheelsforwinners.org/bike-mechanics
We also have many more free bike repair events. Check out our schedule and bring a bike for a safety check or repair. https://wheelsforwinners.org/free-repair-events
Thanks to the long legacy of the efforts of Richard Castelnuovo & Alan Crossley, Wheels For Winners was recognized at a May 22, 2025 ceremony at the newly renovated Bayview Complex. It was interesting to look out during the ceremony to see all of the youth enjoying their bicycles! Our efforts along with so many others have made a difference in the lives of those who live there. Over the years, they have earned over 400 bikes from us and we have serviced over 300 of them. Keep them rolling!
Thanks to all of our volunteers and Bayview Foundation for making this a very special award!
Alan Crossley and Wheels’ volunteers Neil M, Ted and Paul were back at it the very next day doing 21 free bike repairs at Bayview.
