We bring bikes back to the road, helping newcomers be happy riders.
One bike at a time.
We rescue bikes
We fix them up
Our volunteer team of ace bike mechanics assess donated bikes for suitability and safety, then fix them up ready for the new owners.
We donate them
Newcomers to the area, or anyone who needs a bike, can apply or be nominated to receive a OneBike – ready to hit the road.
Kiwis love biking. And most people in the Whakatipu own a bike. Or do they?
Many of us have fond memories of getting our first bike and learning to ride. Everyone had one and we had the freedom to go anywhere and do anything. Bikes are a unique part of our Kiwi culture. But not for all. Two local charities have gathered together a community of people who agree that bikes are essential to our Queenstown culture. They’re working to make sure everyone who needs a bike, can get one. Commuting or recreational, the bikes will be safe and ready to ride.
OneBike is a community project. It’s by the community for the whole community.
So we need you to join the movement.
