Second Cycle is a community cycle center that supports, educates, and advocates for cyclists in the Hilltop neighborhood and surrounding Tacoma community. Launched in a small basement in 2008 by a group of cyclists, bike mechanics, and bike messengers eager to encourage bicycling, Second Cycle incorporated as a nonprofit in 2011 and moved into its current storefront from which it provides a community work space, bicycle maintenance classes, youth bike programming, and affordable repair services and bicycle components. The nonprofit performs $100 a day in in-kind services and helps 175 community members a week during its open shop hours. To ensure everyone can access its services, Second Cycle offers low-income people, those experiencing homelessness, and youth access to the shop’s resources at a reduced rate or no cost.
