[TheThinkTank] Durham Bike Co-op

[durham bike collective]

hey all! I just wanted to give a heads up about a new bicycle co-operative opening in Durham, NC: the Durham Bike Co-op. We've found a bunch of awesome people opening a community center/show space/infoshop (called Bull City HQ) and are partnering w/them on a space; the bike co-op is opening March 25th. We'd definately be down to connect w/all of you and get any advice you might have--we're pretty new at this. For more info (mission statement etc.) see: www.durhambikecoop.org  or myspace: www.myspace.com/durhambikecoop

yours,
Colin - Durham Bike Co-op.

Indeed we're still here, just unresponsive due to a temporary lapse in responsibility for the email.  We've never been good about that.  We've shifted our focus back to classes and repairs.

Plan B, the original host of Bike!Bike!, is still in existence.  I've
heard the ARK building was relatively undamaged.  In the weeks after the
floods, they shifted operations to provide low/no cost bikes for 
residents.  Website is now at www.bikeproject.org.

In an effort to keep resources from being siphoned off by the deluge of
"outsiders", Common Ground folks launched RHUBARB ( rubarbike.org -- no
www.) primarily for visiting reconstruction volunteers.  Looks like it's
now an earn a bike and open shop program.

I haven't been in contact in nearly a year, so i'm not sure how Plan B's 
and RHUBARB's missions are changing or how they fit together.
