The Raleigh Community Kickstand is an all-volunteer, non-profit community bicycle cooperative project located in Raleigh, NC and established in 2017. We are currently partnering with homeless resource centers in the Raleigh area to repair bicycles and teach maintenance skills. We work with the city, local cycling shops, cycling non-profits, and other organizations and individuals to collect resources and skills to address a need in our community for safe, reliable, self-sufficient transportation. Our motto is simple: fix, teach, give.  

The Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Commission (BPAC) is an all-volunteer advisory body, appointed by the Raleigh City Council. Members are responsible for making recommendations on the implementation of relevant programs, policies, regulations, and funding priorities regarding walking and bicycling in Raleigh.

Join us for the Light Up The Night - Cary group ride!

This ride is perfect for anyone looking to enjoy a fun, easy, and social ride around Cary.

Meet at the Cary Regional Library on the third Thursday of every month. The group will roll out at 6:00 pm. There will be a short 1-mile loop for families to participate in. After that, the group will continue on a sub-10-mile ride at a social pace before returning to the library.

Stick around afterward and join others at a nearby ice cream shop or brewery for post-ride hangouts. Get to know other Cary locals who love to ride and are passionate about safe active travel in Cary.

Interested in volunteering more with Oaks and Spokes? Want to be part of more active travel advocacy? Or do you have a bike ride or event idea you’d love to see happen and need more support?

Join our Events and Advocacy Committee monthly meetups! Our committees are open to anyone who wants to help Oaks and Spokes grow.

Our Events Committee works with Oaks and Spokes staff and Board members to develop, plan, and execute unique rides and events. This can be anything from an alleycat to a bike art show to a bike-themed movie screening. If you love bringing people together and have fun, new ideas, join our Events Committee!

Our Advocacy Committee works with Oaks and Spokes staff and Board members to develop, organize, and execute advocacy initiatives around active travel in Raleigh. These initiatives include biking and walking audits, bike lane cleaning events, letter-writing campaigns, tactical urbanism, legal guerrilla activism, and civic engagement.

Both committees meet at the same time and location on the fourth Thursday of each month. Keeping the schedule consistent helps maintain momentum and makes it easier to keep showing up. With both committees meeting together, there’s also an opportunity for collaboration between the two! So, if you're interested in both committees, you'll have the opportunity to pop into each group in one visit. SMART! RIGHT?

Locations may vary as we identify a suitable place to host these meetings.

Join us for Raleigh's BIGGEST group ride. All wheels are welcome - bicycle, one wheel, scooter, skateboard, roller skates, roller blades, etc. 

We roll at 7 pm from NCSU's Memorial Bell Tower on Hillsborough St.
