The Bike Church is a bicycle advocacy project that will recycle bicycles, and utilize them as part of a youth and neighborhood empowerment program.
Every Monday, between 4pm-7pm, kids from Asbury Park come to The Bike Church to learn how to fix bikes, to practice riding, and to learn about safety issues related to bicycles.
Their latest project is called Second Life Bikes and is located at:
701 Memorial Drive (Between Asbury Ave and Sewall Ave)

Second Life Bikes is new this year. At this location, they plan on hosting workshops for adults and teenagers. It will also serve as a used bike shop that will help fund all their programs.
You can find one of those unique bikes you need just for the summer or weekend or find a bike for you or your kids.

They are located next to Holy Spirit Church at 705 Second Avenue near the corner of Main Street in Asbury Park.
