Or FREE PICKLE WEEK, even. It could be a pickle with every purchase, ending in a big ole' pickle potluck/feast like with sauerkraut and kimchee and pickle bucket panniers (I recommend pickled ginger) works. I mean, seriously. You could even sanitize some spokes and serve pickles on spokes. it could be maybe even used as a fundraiser or volunteer lure event if you're due for one of those.

Tulsa oklahoma bike coops?
by Tom Martin 19 Jul '16

19 Jul '16

Hi all: I may be visiting Tulsa, OK in the fall. Whats the bike scene like in this city? Are there any co-ops or bike collectives doing any kind of programming? Is there a commuter culture? Is it strictly recreational in terms of participation in bicycling? Safe routes to school? Tom Martin ASPCC bike program coordinator Cascade Sent on the go. Please excuse brevity and typos.
