Build A Bike was just a vision in September of 1994.  Six weeks later.... after borrowing $15,000 and accepting donations of everything from pegboard to tamales...Build a Bike opened it's doors on October 15th, 1994.
I have seen boys get out of gangs, go back to school,  go to college, become exceptional athletes,  have their own families, become an asset to their community, follow their dreams, and open  businesses themselves!
Build A Bike has been featured in over a dozen National Magazines, and done things for our community that few will ever know about.
Build A Bike has always encouraged the youth in our community.  My dreanm is that Build A Bike will continue to care, encouraging our youth to believe that  nothing is impossible, and that no obsticle is too large to tackle.  With my website I will continue to recognize all of you who build bikes, and  I will support BMX Freestyle rider's RIGHT TO RIDE!

Build A Bike was based on these principles... We are anti-gang, anti-drug, we stay in school, and we try to do the right things. 

                             Build A  Bike was sold in  October of 2008
