Sept 12th, 2020: We are pleased to announce we are opening our shop, including the basement! To allow customers to browse, shop & search for used parts. However at a reduced capacity. One (1) customer at a time please. Unfortunately due to the small size of the shop, we can not safely physically distance.
So we kindly ask that you wear a mask upon entering the shop. Volunteering opportunities, repair classes, and shop rentals will continue to be suspended until further notice. Recyclistas is the hub of Greater Victoria's grassroots cycling community. We are a full-service bicycle repair shop, recycling depot and educational work space.

Recyclistas History
Report
Recyclistas beginnings coincided with a growing community bicycle movement in North America that drew inspiration from the international Bikes Not Bombs organization. Bikes Not Bombs was originally dedicated to providing sustainable, human-powered transportation to communities in developing countries by setting up in those countries local community bicycle maintenance spaces and training local bike mechanics.
