UpCycles at Yarra Valley ECOSS re-opens today Saturday 13 January from 10am to 4pm

Courses will resume the week after (20 January 1pm to 3pm) with ‘How to bleed hydraulic disc brakes’. To book email upcycles@ecoss.org.au

UpCycles is a bicycle maintenance hub and youth group space, adjoining the overflow maintenance space.

Discarded bicycles and unwanted bicycle parts provided by local bike shops are collected, and ECOSS members work with youth teams and other community members of all abilities to refurbish the bicycles for both charity and for sale at ECOSS. The proceeds of the sales of the bikes will be reinvested into purchasing essential tools and parts to continue the program.
