Webhosting/domains
by Bike City 24 Mar '25

24 Mar '25

Well, I recently threw together some hand-written HTML and slapped it onto a free (and ad-less) webhost. This seemed great at first, regardless of the weird URL. But after lots of other publicity and potential traffic, I've seen it get hacked twice (by a radical Islamic group after the whole host, nothing personal), and lately it's either painfully slow to load or completely down. So, I haven't done this for about a decade and I'm out of the loop. I'm really not willing to suffer any ads, but since our budgeted is obcenely limited for such fluff, does anyone have recommendations? Are there any more reliable ad-free free hosts? (Probably not, for obvious reasons.) Otherwise, how do you guys handle web hosting? How much does it cost? What's a good balance between reliable and affordable? How much is domain registration nowadays? We don't have our 501(c)(3) status yet so we won't get a deal until later this year, by the way. Anyway, please help. It's rough to find time to FTP an update and find the site's down. Thanks, andrea Bike City Recyclery of Fayetteville, Arkansas http://bikecity.uuuq.com/ (hahaha)

Reusable Repair Checklist Tag
by director 02 May '23

02 May '23

Hey All, We just spent some time and redid the tag we use to track repairs on a bike. I'm sure your shops are similar to ours in that many mechanics of varying skill levels will work on a single bike before it's distributed back to the world for use. This make it challenging to ensure a standard of quality on any given bike leaving the shop. As we fleshed out the tag we realized that it could function loosely as a curriculum. For most mechanics, especially students we suggest starting at the top and working down the list. I've come to realize that no two mechanics will do things in the exact same way, everyone has their own style. We've been suggesting that folks do the first two items in order and then address the rest of the repairs at their discretion. Of course we couldn't put everything on a half page so we had to make compromises. You'll notice as you get closer to the bottom of the tag the categories are a little more broad and don't get into the finer details. We're working on a final check list that will include finer details like checking bearing play, tire wear, fine tune derailleurs and brakes... The final checklist won't hang on the bike but it'll be around the shop and part of our training. Stay tuned for this. We print these double sided, cut them in half and laminate them. We hang them on the handlebars and fill them out with a Sharpie. When the bike is done and gone we clean the Sharpie off with 90% rubbing alcohol and a rag. This allows us to use one tag over and over and over. We've been using these tags for about 2 weeks now and it's been awesome. Communication between mechanics is much clearer and bikes are getting done faster. It's really helped orient Earn-A-Bike students to what needs to be done next on their bike. Anyway if you think it's a good idea feel free to adapt it to your shops needs. -- Ride On!

English /// Español /// Français Bike!Bike! Community! Is your organization (or a network of groups in your city) considering volunteering to host an upcoming Bike!Bike! Conference? We would love to hear from you about your plans to host! Current and former organizers would be interested in checking in regarding your preparation, considerations, questions, and planning guidelines! The decision of who will host is made collectively by those attending the conference each year, but this process can be a bit intimidating, confusing, and demanding on those offering to host. If we can get interested parties to check in in advance of the conference, we can make this process as clear and streamlined as possible, and sharing your interest in advance will also allow for attendees (or those unable to be with us this year) to ask you questions and get an idea of what your group and your city could offer as hosts. If you are interested in chatting about the potential to host next year's conference, or the year after, send us a message! email: bikebike2018(a)gmail.com or needleandthread(a)gmail.com --------- A la comunidad de Bike!Bike! ¿Alguna de sus organizaciones (o red de grupos de su ciudad) se está considerando como anfitriona para la realización del siguiente Bike!Bike! ?

How to cross a street
by Tigre Bici 25 Sep '18

25 Sep '18

Hello, we are making a video on how it is to cross streets in our city, Monterrey, Mexico. The idea is to compare different cities around the world on how it is to cross a street, this is to demonstrate that even thought we have excellent laws on hot to move around the city, the reality is far far from what it is written. So we are asking for inputs on how it is to cross a street in your cities. It can be a short video (-15-20s) on and intersection (with or without traffic lights) and can be recorded on a cellphone or a camera. We attach a video we record with a go pro attache to a bike helmet on a 720 resolution, and unfortunately we are not able to see the plates of the cab that yelled profanities to the woman crossing the street . It will be of great help to have the videos of your cities and use them on creating some conscience. Thanks in advance and so much fun to all of you going to B!B! PS you can send them via email, or we transfer or either telegram Saludos R.

Ride from San Fran to bike!bike!
by Geoff Heath 22 Sep '18

22 Sep '18

Hey good bike peoples Myself and my partner Camille are currently biking down the west coast en route to bike!Bike! but don't have time to ride all the way to LA so we're hoping to catch a lift (along with our bikes) on the 27th or so. Right now our schedule has us on track to arrive in Bodega Bay late on the 26th and lagunitas late on the 27th. That said we're happy to catch a bus earlier into San Rafael or San Fran if it means we can catch a ride with someone to LA. We're happy to pitch in for gas of course and can regale you with stories of the road! If you're able to help us out please drop us a text at 215-459-8864 or if you have any hot tips on how to get down the coast with our bikes (aside from taking a fucking Greyhound) send me an email. Can't wait to see all yer lovely faces at B!B!
