In the Community
In 2024, BikeLNK was provided a grant by the Cooper Foundation for 75 free passes to be distributed to Lincoln residents experiencing transportation instability. Through collaborations with many community partners, we’ve been able to distribute nearly half of these passes to individuals who need them most. We’re continuing these efforts until march of 2026, so if you know anyone who is currently experiencing transportation instability, send us an email at info@bikelnk.com or contact any of the below community partners!

55 and over? Come join us with Aging Partners as we go over the ins and outs of how to use bikeshare! Biking is one of the purest lifetime sports - low impact, low stress, and most importantly, fun! BikeLNK's Ebikes bring a whole new level of accessibility and joy to the cycling experience and are great for senior citizens and those with low mobility. Please call the Aging Partners Health and Fitness office phone number at 402-441-7575 to inquire about dates and preregister one of these sessions that take place throughout the course of the summer.
UNL Group Rides and Lectures
Each semester, the BikeLNK staff engages with UNL sustainability courses and programs to further the understanding of micromobility and cycling among students.
Through ENVR 101, in cooperation with leaders from Campus Recreation, each semester we host a group ride for students from East Campus to City Campus and back, which provides us an opportunity to talk one-on-one with students about Lincoln’s cycling infrastructure and culture!
Recently, BikeLNK’s presence on campus was also the focus of the final group project for students in the more advanced ENVR 319.
Forging Community Connections
Part of the BikeLNK mission is to provide a level of advocacy and education about cycling and transportation infrastructure for Lincoln. In our automobile-centric world, many individuals who cannot afford vehicular transportation and left to their own devices to traverse the City. As one of only three modes of transportation around town, it’s important to make our system as widely understood and accessible as possible. Below are a few recent efforts that work toward this greater goal.
