A bike found for free that another human has decided to put in a dumpster, donate and/or [share the love] of cycling to somebody else for free.

Dumpster bikes are often found street side on council pickups in certain areas in Australia. The council pickups are in some councils given to a selection of streets each week and allows people to put out roadside unwanted items that are destined to the refuse tip. These items are collected by the dumpster. It is common for people to drive around and pickup any items that take their fancy. This creates a system whereby people put out things for this purposes and not solely destined for the tip. What doesn’t get taken ends up at the tip.

The term Dumpster Bike was made cult by none other than Austin Reed - Colorado dingo legend that habitated in Sydney Australia for some say a wild period of time.

Austin ‘Dingo’ Reed would find dumster bikes [frequently] and [share the love] by firstly ‘dumsterising’ them and then giving them away to people with a new lease of life.

Dumsterising is simply using a [black spray] paint and crudely painting the majority of said found dumpster bike. Dumpsterising a bike in no way requires skill or meticulous work. In fact the opposite. Most dumpsterisations occur within 5-15 minutes of time.

The result is something that could be considered ‘hipster laissez-faire boho chic’.

To have seen, owned, ridden or even dumsterised a dumpster bike is a truly [magnificent] thing.
