“Free Bikes for Protesters” Notice, Minneapolis

“Free Bikes for Protesters” Notice, Minneapolis

November 2021 — This handwritten notice, taped to the window of a Minneapolis bike shop, reflects one of the many grassroots mutual-aid efforts that emerged during the city’s protest movement. The shop offered free, rebuilt bicycles to anyone participating in demonstrations—an informal and unscheduled giveaway run entirely by staff and volunteers. While their primary mission focused on supporting young people experiencing homelessness, they used whatever capacity they had to meet the immediate needs of the surrounding community during a period of intense civic mobilization. The message captures a moment when local businesses and residents quickly adapted, improvising systems of care and resource-sharing amid the broader upheaval following the killing of George Floyd. These small gestures—bikes, food, first-aid kits, and other supplies—became essential infrastructure for protesters navigating the city on foot and by bike as streets closed and transit routes fluctuated.
