Bridgestone Bike
​While traveling home from Utah to New York, Sean Praskievicz drove through Lincoln and bought this classic Bridgestone RB 1 from LBK.  It had been donated by Foster Collins.  We're happy to see this pristine classic go to someone who appreciates it.

Here for the Community
The Lincoln Bike Kitchen is a community-building organization that provides bicycles and related resources to all people. We advocate for utilitarian bicycling as a vital part of a healthy, equitable and sustainable community. We connect cycling to broader environmental and social issues through outreach, and education.

Growing Our Mission
LBK has donated over 700 bikes this year. Our goal is to reach 1000 bikes distributed, including a helmet and cable lock with each bike. 
Our success has been so overwhelming we are splitting at the seams and have outgrown our current space. We can't sustain this pace unless we find a new location. If you know of a possible space for repairs, office work and storage, contact us  so we can continue helping kids be kids by matching them with a gently used bike.
