	[[Our Community Bikes]]		'''[[Our Community Bikes]]'''

			Our Community Bikes is the best known project of PEDAL. It is a full service repair shop, bicycle recycling depot and an educational workspace for people who wish to repair their own bikes or learn how to do so.

	~~[[The Pedal Depot]]~~

			'''[[The PEDAL Depot]]'''

	~~[[PEDALs For~~ The ~~People]]~~		The PEDAL Depot is a bicycle education and recycling workshop where most of PEDAL’s charitable and educational programs take place.

			'''[[PEDALs For The People]]'''

	[[Our Community Bike Club]]		PEDALs for the People aims to provide refurbished bicycles to people in Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, and North Vancouver who wouldn’t otherwise have an opportunity to own one. It combines used bicycles that may destined for the landfill, volunteers who learn to repair bicycles, and marginalized people within the community in need of affordable and accessible transportation. By doing this, we are encouraging a more direct relationship between the community, ourselves, and the bikes that we are building.

			'''[[Our Community Bike Club]]'''

			Our Community Bike Club aims to inspire a love of cycling in young people and to create a wider interest in and awareness of safe cycling and active transportation in our neighbourhoods and schools. Bike Clubs are about the autonomy of an adventure on two wheels.
