We exist to create a better future for young people in Tasmania.

We mentor and train young people through the medium of bicycles, developing work skills, confidence, resilience, healthy character traits and attitudes.

We exist to support young people to unlock their potential, by walking alongside a young person through their adolescent years and encouraging and nurturing their growth and development.

We seek to establish our programs as long-term, place-based initiatives that become a part of the fabric of the local community.

Our vision is to create a network of Bike Collectives all around the state to fulfil this mission.
