Bamboo Bikes!

The UA Outdoor Recreation office just received 8 bamboo bikes made with locally harvested bamboo. The Bike Lab in Greensboro, AL, as part of the HERO Projects, partners with Bamboo Bike Studio, based in San Francisco, CA, to produce the sustainable-oriented bikes.


The raw bamboo is harvested just down the road in Greensboro, AL then taken to the Bike Lab for processing. If you are interested in learning more about the build process, the Bike Lab offered build workshop where you can custom build your own bamboo bike in many different configurations.

    wow! it's relay post? Thank's for sharing. Goodness! You biked right passed our home town :-) It's funny seeing pictures of trails and places so familiar to us in this post. Glad you enjoyed your ride. Next time you plan to bike the KVR, let us know. We'd love to join you for a stretch of it!
