Cabrillo College Bicycle Cooperative

Fall Semester '09 we are open 2pm to 6pm, Monday to Thursday. We need more volunteers to further extend our open hours.

NEWS: Contact the Student Senate, Student Affairs Office and/or the College President to advocate alternatives to increasing the bus pass fee.

Cabrillo College was awarded a grant from the MBUAPCD for zero interest bike loans and improved bike parking on campus. Members of the Bike Cooperative are working to design functional art bike racks and to become an approved vendor for the bike load program. Ask us for more info. Or visit this website
