BikeBike! is an annual conference of community bicycle projects from around the US, Canada and abroad. The Bike Church and the SF Bicycle Kitchen, in collaboration with other Bay Area folks, are hosting this year's conference in San Francisco, September 25th-28th. For more information or to learn ways you can get involved, read more about it here.
The Watsonville Brown Berets are collaborating with Bike Churchers to help folks fix bikes at the Friday farmer's market in downtown Watsonville from 4 to 7pm.
ozelotl describes the project goals on the Brown Beret blog:
We have decided that the strong presence of bicycles in the community would be essential in a community with a large number of undocumented workers who cannot legally obtain a driver’s license, as well as for all the homies who can’t afford an expensive car and would rather sport a beach cruiser. Bike Church is for la comunidad by la comunidad. Take advantage!
There's a new bike cooperative forming at Cabrillo College in Aptos. They don't have a website yet, but you can email bikecoop@cabrillo.edu. Read more about it here.
Even earlier in gestation is a bike project in Monterey, which is currently looking for space. The Bike Church has offered tools, parts and non-profit status, and the Montereyers are ready to volunteer, so if you know of an appropriate space please contact us.
