Our goals for 2026 include
- regularly scheduled age band classes (5 & 6, 7 & 8, etc)
- at least one “theme ride” per quarter
- piloting small group classes in Spanish for youth and adults
- partnering with interested elementary schools to create pop-up or semi-permanent traffic gardens
- increasing volunteer participation in our bicycle refurbishment program
In-kind
In-kind donations of supplies, bicycle accessories, tools, bicycles (in gently used condition), expertise, and more are always appreciated. Contact us for information on how to donate!
We have an Amazon wish list and a Nashbar wish list. We also have a Wal-Mart registry for shop needs and for office needs. (We encourage supporting local bike shops first!)
Volunteer
We can always use an extra hand at classes to inflate tires, encourage students, and provide snacks. For group rides, we appreciate experienced riders serving as sweeps or SAG. Bike Fun can also use help at Bicycle Revivals from experienced bicycle mechanics to help make bikes safe to ride, and at the Nashville Bicycle Festival to help create a smooth event experience.
Other areas of support include promotion, community partnership connection, and fundraising. We are particularly interested in outreach in counties further out from Nashville that are also in Middle Tennessee. Please be in touch with us and tell us what you’re interested in doing! You can also see our volunteer opportunities via our SignUp.com page below.

It’s not unusual to hear people say, “I never knew there was a service that provided bicycle lessons and classes.”
We’d love for everyone in the Middle Tennessee area to know about Bike Fun and to refer new or returning riders to us. Bike Fun is on many social media channels, has a blog on our website, and lists resources for Middle Tennessee on our website.
