About Us

Hub is a syndicate of volunteers with a mission to change lives through cycling. Founded by Ren Barger in 2008, Tulsa Hub is the belief in human power, made visible. Tulsa Hub is the only non-profit in Oklahoma providing certified bicycling-for-transportation education, refurbished bicycles, safety gear, and follow-up support to the impoverished, mentally ill, or otherwise disenfranchised of our community. After participants “pay it forward” with 10 hours of volunteerism and training, bicycles and gear are earned in the Adult Cycling Empowerment (ACE) program. We are also working to change the habits of the next generation by conducting active-transportation programs with elementary school students.
