Baltimore Youth Kinetic Energy Collective, or BYKE, which was started by 2015 OSI Community Fellow, Chavi Rhodes, will celebrate its 5th anniversary on April 26th with a free event. The celebration will also include a farewell to Rhodes, who is handing over the executive directorship to Jasper Barnes.
Rhodes co-founded BYKE as a way to both create a safe space for young cyclists and also give them an opportunity to learn bike mechanics, practice safe and respectful ridership, and build community. BYKE also gives kids a chance to earn a bike of their own.
RSVP to the event here.
