Bike Pirates Announces a Big Move!
by Ainsley Naylor 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

Friends and allies, Bike Pirates would like to announce that we are currently in search of a new home for 2015! We are excited to start a new chapter and to have you all along for the exciting years ahead. Our hope is to be settling into a new, bigger and better space in January which should have the least impact on our operations. But we need your help! We will need hands to help sort, pack and move out of our home on Bloor Street. We will also need lots of help and skilled individuals to help build and set up our new home. To cover the predicted costs of moving and renovating and lost income during this transition period we will be launching a fundraising campaign in the next few weeks. Please stay tuned for details on this campaign, as well as callouts for support and “hands on deck” as we sail into the future. *Check our website, facebook and twitter feeds to keep up to date*. Thanks for all of your support, we couldn't do this without you! Bike Pirates.

Shop Liability Insurance- who are you using these days?
by Leslie Peteya 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

Hi all, We at the Durham Bike Co-op are on the market for a new shop liability insurance carrier to cover our assets, our volunteers, and their assets. What carrier have you had good success with? Who should we avoid? And to those shops that don't carry it, holy crap, I totally suggest you should. We recently had a patron's health insurance company come after us because of an accident on our premises, and saved us a good amount of hassle by having our insurance deal with it. Best, Leslie Board Member, Purchaser and 4 Other Roles Durham Bike Co-op

by La Bikery 26 Oct '14

26 Oct '14

Heya Heya Spokes, We are in the process of looking for a new space that will fit all of our activities and bikes!!! We hope to have enough room for a shop with 4 bikes stands, workshop delivery, a small retail sales areas for parts and swag,about 20 recycle-a- bikes, and 20 rental bikes. For any of you out there that have a good size space would you be able to send the dimensions of your space? We are trying to figure out how much room we need!! I remember visiting Our Community Bikes in Vancouver and Goodlife in Calgary which both have good sized spaces but I have lost the direct contact information to ask them directly so if anyone from either of those organizations are on this list I would be really curious about the size of your locations!! Thanks in advance for you help and insight! Amanda -- *Coopérative La Bikery Co-operative * *Centre de vélo communautaire /Community Bicycle Centre* *120 boul.
