What they’re saying

“The Devo Bike Swap is so many things at once: Devo's biggest fundraiser of the year, an amazing start-of-season gathering for the Durango bike community and a big celebration of spring.”

— Nate Greason, Executive Director, Durango Devo

“One really cool element of the Devo Bike Swap is that it keeps capable, used bikes right here in the Durango community. Sports like biking, that require a pretty serious gear-component, can have a high barrier to entry. So, by helping our community pass bikes down through generations, the Devo Bike Swap helps make it just a little easier for kids and families to enjoy everything that biking has to offer.”

— Nate Greason, Executive Director, Durango Devo

What’s next

Volunteers are needed to help make the Devo Bike Swap a success. No special skills are required, and all help is appreciated. Volunteers receive early-bird shopping access as a perk.

The takeaway

The Devo Bike Swap is a community-driven event that promotes sustainability, accessibility, and a love of cycling in Durango. By giving used bikes new life and keeping them in the local area, the event helps break down barriers to entry for the sport and supports Durango Devo's mission of developing lifelong cyclists.
