Were any of the sessions recorded, or are the static materials available (e.g. slides)? Ironically I couldn't attend the "Biking with Babies" session because I was taking care of our new baby. =\ Jean-François

Starting a School Bike Bus/Train
by Stuart Nottingham 22 Oct '21

22 Oct '21

Good day, everyone. I'm trying to get a jump on starting a Bike Bus/Train to celebrate next year's Bike Month here in Salisbury NC. I was wondering if any of your organizations had already undertaken such a project and had information or suggestions they'd be willing to share. I find tat it's always better to follow guidance from those who have gone before and build on it. Thanks! Stuart Nottingham

Thanks for the replies. That is helpful. However, I guess I'm still not clear whether e-bike conversions we do at the shop (rather than club rides with rider owned e-bikes) would be covered by general liability insurance. Does anyone have any further insights?

E-bike conversion insurance?
by Adam-Phoenix Mitchell 10 Sep '21

10 Sep '21

Hello all, We are trying to determine if we need insurance (beyond general liability) to cover e-bike conversions on used bikes. Not totally sure if general liability insurance would cover this and I assume it may depend on the carrier. I'm also not totally clear why there would be any difference between this and a normal refurbished bike we sell, in terms of liability. Any insights would be appreciated! Cheers, Phoenix Freeride Montpelier Community Bike Shop

Bike!Bike! Everywhere!/¡Dondequiera! 2021 - Nov. 12-14
by Bike!Bike! Everywhere! 07 Sep '21

07 Sep '21

You are invited to Bike!Bike! Everywhere! 2021 <http://en.bikebike.org>. *Please forward this invitation to other community bike organizations*. *What:* *Bike!Bike! Everywhere! 2021 is the online version of the annual Bike!Bike! - a conference for community bike organizations.* It is an international get-together where people share experiences and ideas about community bike projects. *When: Friday, Nov. 12 - Sunday, Nov. 14.* *Where: Online.* Zoom for audio/video meetings and Discord for text chat. *How: Sign up at* *en.bikebike.org* <http://en.bikebike.org>*. Registration Deadline is Sunday, Sept. 26.* (It will ask some questions about housing, food, etc. that don't make sense for an online conference. Answer those however you want; we'll ignore them.) More details below... ------------------------------------------------------ Esta es la invitación a Bike!Bike! ¡Dondequiera! 2021 <http://es.bikebike.org>. *Por favor, reenvía esta invitación a otras organizaciones ciclistas y talleres comunitarios que conozcas*. *¿Qué es? ¡Bike!Bike! ¡Dondequiera! ¡2021 es la versión en línea de la conferencia anual ¡Bike!Bike! - una conferencia para organizaciones ciclistas y talleres comunitarios.* Se trata de un encuentro internacional en el que se comparten experiencias e ideas sobre proyectos comunitarios en bicicleta. *¿Cuándo? Del viernes 12 al domingo 14 de noviembre.* *¿Dónde? En línea.* Zoom para las reuniones de audio/vídeo y Discord para el chat de texto. *¿Cómo? Inscríbete en* *es.bikebike.org* <http://es.bikebike.org>*. La fecha límite de inscripción es el domingo 26 de septiembre.* (Se harán algunas preguntas sobre alojamiento, comida, etc. que no tienen sentido para una conferencia en línea. Responde a ellas como quieras; no las tomaremos en cuenta. Más detalles abajo... ------------------------------------------------------ *Who:* Everyone who is involved with or interested in community/non-profit bike projects is invited. We plan to have simultaneous interpretation in English and Spanish for audio/video sessions, and French may be available depending on monolingual French speaker interest at registration. *Why:* You love bike-related things. You love community. You love communities of bike people. You don't want to travel (pandemic, environmentalism, expense). You want to be a part of a community of community bike people. *Frequently Asked Questions:* *Can/should I propose a workshop? How?* Yes! You can propose a workshop when you register. Attendees can select the workshops they are most interested in, and we will take that into account when scheduling the events. *What kind of workshop should I propose?* That's up to you! We are expecting most workshops to be either "presentations" where one person or a few people do most of the talking, or "discussions" where a facilitator leads a conversation that everyone participates in. If you want to try another format, though, go for it! (Anyone want to do a text-based discussion via Discord?) There are lists of workshops from previous years: 2019 <https://en.bikebike.org/conferences/Tijuana2019/workshops/> 2018 <https://en.bikebike.org/conferences/LosAngeles2018/workshops/> 2017 <https://en.bikebike.org/conferences/Winnipeg2017/workshops/> 2016 <https://www.bikecollectives.org/wiki/Bike!Bike!_2016> 2015 <http://w.bikecollectives.org/index.php?title=Bike!Bike!_2015> 2013 <http://w.bikecollectives.org/index.php?title=Bike!Bike!_2013> 2012 <http://w.bikecollectives.org/index.php?title=Bike!Bike!_2012> 2011 <http://w.bikecollectives.org/index.php?title=Bike!Bike!_2011>. Topics of interest from the preliminary interest survey are listed here. <https://docs.google.com/document/d/11QEGMitvaDv33Q2G9SgSUOG8edfIGW-QFBUEyPG…> *Why is the registration process asking me about housing and food? I thought this was a virtual conference!* Yep. It's a virtual conference, but the website was designed for in-person events. Some of those questions are baked into the design, and we can't change them. Answer however you like - we'll disregard them. We cannot feed or house you on the internet. (-: *What time of day is the conference?* We will try to schedule events at various times so they're available to people with different schedules and in different time zones. *Why are you using Zoom/Discord?* We chose to prioritize Bike!Bike!'s tradition of Language Justice. We would love to use platforms that are open source and end-to-end encrypted, but we aren't aware of any open source software or end-to-end encrypted platforms with simultaneous interpretation features in the same league as Zoom. Discord has good machine translation features and a much friendlier user interface than any of the alternatives we have found. If you think there's another platform that would be a better fit, please email darin(a)darinwick.com - we'd love to hear about it! *Who is organizing this?* Volunteers & compañerxs (companions)! Most of us are or have been involved in bike collectives/other community bike organizations/cross-language projects. Bike Farm in Portland, OR is handling the finances. *How do I donate money?* You can donate to help fund Bike!Bike! Everywhere! when you register. *Why donate money?* We would love to pay translators and interpreters this year - translation and simultaneous interpretation are a lot of work and require some serious skill. If there are funds left over, they will be set aside for future Bike!Bike! events. *How do I volunteer?* In addition to facilitating or presenting a workshop, you can help with administrative logistics, tech support, planning, communications, translation, interpretation, and so much more! Please email bikebikeeverywhere(a)gmail.com and we can connect you with the to-do spreadsheets and the email work group listservs. ------------------------------------------------------ *¿Quién puede inscribirse?* Cualquier persona que este interesada en proyectos comunitarios/sin ánimo de lucro en bicicleta. Tenemos previsto contar con interpretación simulatanea en inglés y español para las sesiones de audio y vídeo. Dependiendo del interés de personas monolingues en francés durante la inscirpción, es posible que también haya interpretación en el idioma. *¿Por qué?* Te gustan las cosas relacionadas con la bicicleta. Te gusta la comunidad ciclista. No quieres viajar (pandemia, ecologismo, gastos). Quieres formar parte de una comunidad de gente ciclista. *Preguntas frecuentes:* *¿Puedo/debo proponer un taller? ¿Cómo?* Sí, puedes proponer un taller al inscribirte. Quienes asistentes pueden seleccionar los talleres que más les interesen, y lo tendremos en cuenta a la hora de programar los eventos. *¿Qué tipo de taller debo proponer?* ¡Eso depende de ti! Esperamos que la mayoría sean "presentaciones" en las que una persona o unas pocas personas son las que más hablan, o bien "debates" en los que una persona dirige/facilita una conversación en la que se participa por igual. Sin embargo, si quieres probar otro formato, ¡hazlo! (¿Alguien quiere hacer un debate basado en texto a través de Discord?) Hay listas de talleres de años anteriores: 2019 <https://es.bikebike.org/conferences/Tijuana2019/workshops/> 2018 <https://es.bikebike.org/conferences/LosAngeles2018/workshops/> 2017 <https://es.bikebike.org/conferences/Winnipeg2017/workshops/> 2016 (eng) <https://www.bikecollectives.org/wiki/Bike!Bike!_2016> 2015 (eng) <https://www.bikecollectives.org/wiki/Bike!Bike!_2015> 2013 <https://www.dropbox.com/sh/nii0541mwp5d8w2/AAC8kYs4sKCcXngZ11RxbMypa?previe…> 2012 (eng) <https://www.bikecollectives.org/wiki/Bike!Bike!_2012> 2011 <https://www.bikecollectives.org/wiki/Bike!Bike!_2011>. Los temas de interés de la encuesta de interés preliminar se enumeran aquí. <https://docs.google.com/document/d/11QEGMitvaDv33Q2G9SgSUOG8edfIGW-QFBUEyPG…> *¿Por qué en el proceso de inscripción me pregunta por el alojamiento y la comida? Creía que era una conferencia virtual!* Sí. Es una conferencia virtual, pero el sitio web fue diseñado para eventos presenciales. Algunas de esas preguntas están integradas en el diseño y no podemos cambiarlas. Responde como quieras, no las tendremos en cuenta. No podemos alimentarte ni alojarte en Internet. (-: *¿A qué hora es la conferencia?* Intentaremos programar los eventos a varias horas para que estén disponibles para personas con diferentes horarios y en diferentes zonas horarias. *¿Por qué se utiliza Zoom/Discord?* Hemos decidido dar prioridad a la tradición de Justicia Lingüística de Bike!Bike! Nos encantaría utilizar plataformas de código abierto y encriptadas de extremo a extremo, pero no conocemos ninguna plataforma de software libre o cifrado de extremo a extremo con funciones de interpretación simultanea de la misma categoría que Zoom. Discord tiene buenas funciones de traducción automática y una interfaz de usuario mucho más amigable que cualquiera de las alternativas que hemos encontrado. Si crees que hay otra plataforma que encaje mejor, envíanos un correo electrónico a darin(a)darinwick.com. ¡Nos encantaría conocerla! *¿Quién lo organiza?* ¡Voluntarixs y compañerxs! La mayoría nos hemos ivolucrado en colectivos ciclistas/otros grupos comunitarios de ciclistas/projectos multilingües. Bike Farm, de Portland, OR, se encarga de las finanzas. *¿Cómo puedo donar dinero?* ¡Cuando te registres puedes donar a ¡Bike!Bike! Everywhere! y ayudar a su financiamiento! *¿Por qué donar dinero?* Nos encantaría poder pagar a lxs traductores y intérpretes este año, ya que la interpretación simultanea es un gran trabajo y requiere una gran habilidad. ¡Si sobran fondos, se reservarán para futuros eventos de ¡Bike!Bike! *¿Cómo puedo ser voluntarix?* Además de facilitar o presentar un taller, puedes ayudar con la logística administrativa, el apoyo técnico, la planificación, las comunicaciones, la traducción, la interpretación y mucho más. Envía un correo electrónico a bikebikeeverywhere(a)gmail.com y le pondremos en contacto con las hojas de cálculo de tareas pendientes y las listas de correo electrónico del grupo de trabajo.
