Old bike disposal

Hi, just wondering if anyone here might know where I can get rid of an old bike?

I seem to remember there was a charity once that would fix up old bikes and then donate them to people, anyone know anything about this?

Its not in bad shape, probably been outside too much. Seems a shame to dump it.

My friend tells me they can still be employed in the porn industry - matures and GILFs

The rediscovery centre in Ballymun has a bike department that accepts donations to be fixed up and sold on, to find their other schemes.

Rothar used to be the main one I think but from the looks of it they’ve changed to just a regular bike shop, could be wrong though.

Frontline bikes in Inchicore seem to accept bikes - they train ex-prisoners and people with drug issues as Bike Mechanics using the donated bikes and then the bikes are given to deserving cases I think. I'm about to give one of our old bikes to them.

I can't post links but frontlne bikes dot com

This forum must be the busiest on boards since the change!

Thanks all, I'll check frontline first, then ballymun, appreciate the replies

There's also something called, I think, Bike Hub in Dun Laoghaire that repurposes bikes for refugees.

Found them:
