In 2026 we are celebrating the 15th year of the Pierce County Bike Swap!
The Swap is a FREE family-friendly community event put on by Ride Together Pierce, where anyone can sell or buy used bicycles and bicycle parts. We encourage you to bring a helmet if you plan on test-riding bikes.
At the Bike Swap, Ride Together Pierce is planning on providing:
- BIKE SALE RACK: Buy a bike or sell a bike at our Bike Sale Rack. If you have 1-2 bikes to sell, this is the recommended route. There are no listing or selling fees. You do not need to sell a bike to buy, or trade. Come find your new-to-you ride!
- BIKE SAFETY CHECK: Make sure your bike is safe to test ride by taking it through a free safety check by a professional bicycle mechanic.
- BIKE REPAIRS: Trek Bikes will be on-site to handle more complex repairs, at a cost.
- BIKE TEST RIDE AREA: Test out your potential new ride on a secure, short route through the Swap.
- LOW-COST HELMETS: Provided by Downtown on the Go, bicyclists can purchase affordable helmets and get a proper helmet fitting.
- BIKE MAP MASTERS: Discuss best biking routes with seasoned local riders at the Bike Map Masters station.
- BIKE SKILLS PRACTICE AREA: Folks of all ages and abilities can practice safe riding skills such as balancing, scanning, stopping, turning, and more.
- PIERCE TRANSIT BUS: Practice putting your bike on the bus rack in a calm environment.
- FOOD TRUCKS: FOOD TRUCKS: Enjoy delicious sweet and savory food from local food trucks. In 2026, we will be joined by Travelin Tom's, El Koreano and Bun and Press.
- BIKE INDEX AND BICYCLE BENEFITS STICKERS: With a Bike Index sticker, you can add security to your bike by registering it to the Bike Index directory. A Bicycle Benefits helmet sticker can be used to receive discounts at participating businesses in Pierce County (and nationwide).
- VENDORS: We are inviting local bike shops and bike-related organizations to show off their products and share the latest information with you on bicycling in Pierce County. If you have several bicycles or bike parts to sell, we recommend you register as a vendor.
