BICAS began with Tucson community members involved in the international Bikes Not Bombs movement in the 1980s, sending bicycles to support Nicaraguan empowerment through transportation access, in opposition to the United States-backed bombing. As BICAS’ focus grounded locally to addressing this same need in Tucson, the bicycle as a tool for liberation has remained key in fortifying not only our local communities, but in opposing the United States’ bombing of communities overseas for oil right now.

Transportation access opens doors. Each BICAS purchase funds this access and self-empowering mechanics education: increasingly needed in the face of rising US militarism-driven prices, predatory housing and rising houselessness, extreme heat, state surveillence, unwalkable employment and education, inequitably distributed public transit, systemic overpolicing, and groundwater theft for data centers in marginalized communities. Bicycles are powerful tools against crises that undermine communities daily; alongside mechanics skills to equip the people we’re honored to work with in transforming their own lives.
