Biggest Little Commuter Program

The Biggest Little Commuter Program (BLCP) was established in 2013 to address transportation challenges faced by adults working to beat poverty.

 

UPDATE: RBP is working hard to collect bike donations from the community and to fix up these donated bikes. Due to current bike and staffing shortages, our Biggest Little Commuter Program is on hold. 

If you are looking for a bike, please check back in a couple of months for updates on our bike inventory. Thank you for your patience, and please reach out to [email protected] with any questions. 

About BLCP

Supporting Individuals

Employing bicycles to empower low-income individuals to overcome transportation barriers in the Truckee Meadows. To date, RBP has provided high quality bicycles and essential commuter accessories to more than 200 individuals, helping get Reno to work by bike.

Overcoming Barriers

This program serves individuals in the Reno-Sparks metro area living at or under 150% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines and struggling to afford and access transportation – an essential factor in obtaining and keeping employment.

Subsidizing Transportation

The costs associated with maintaining a bike are a fraction of the alternatives. The BLCP eases the initial cost of bicycle ownership by subsidizing high-quality commuter bicycles and U-locks for program participants, with the option to add commuter essentials.

Building Partnerships

The BLC program is supported by organizations in our community closest to those we serve. Latinx/Spanish-speaking communities, Black communities, Tribal communities, LGBTQ+ communities, survivors, and more.
