Austin's Yellow Bike Project

About YBP

The Austin Yellow Bike Project (YBP) 501c(3) is an all-volunteer initiative to put bicycles on the streets of Austin and Central Texas by operating community bike shops, teaching bike mechanics and maintenance, and acting as a local bike advocacy group.

The Yellow Bike shop is located at 1216 Webberville Road in Austin Texas, and is an educational facility open to anyone who wants to learn about fixing and riding bikes.  At the Yellow Bike Shop, we don’t fix your bike for you; instead, we show you how to fix it yourself.  The Webberville Shop (view schedule) has twelve fully equipped work-stands and a large selection of used parts, frames, and bikes in various stages of repair. We also offer ready-to-ride used bikes at reasonable prices.

Use of the shop is free to the public, but we need you to volunteer time back equal to what you use for personal projects to keep this community resource alive.  If you don’t have time to volunteer, a cash donation can be made instead.  We have been an all-volunteer organization since we started in 1997, and are fully supported by volunteer time and donated bikes, parts and cash.  For more information check out our Community Bike Shop, Get Involved, and Q and A pages.

YBP has many active and past projects aimed at getting people on bikes.  Projects are targeted towards children and those without the means of purchasing bikes. View our Special Projects, Kid’s Programming,  Adult Classes, and Advocacy pages for more details.

So take a look around the site, and come visit during any our our open hours.

Thanks for the interest,
The Yellow Bike Project
