Hey y'all, I'm working on a collaboration between an NYC community garden and the Mechanical Gardens Bike Co-op to start a bike repair outpost in a shipping container. Before we get started on building the shop, we'll be making some pedal powered gardening tools, and an outdoor repair station. *Do you have an outdoor repair station* for open-access community use at your shop?* If so, please send me a photo and I'll compile them into a shared folder :) *Just to be clear, I'm not looking for an off-the-shelf solution, but something creative you or someone else made.

Posters and resources on gender equity in the shop
by LaBikery 07 Jul '18

07 Jul '18

Hello! I work at a community bike coop in Moncton, New Brunswick. We are looking at visually impactful ways of addressing subtle gender bias in our shop. I am sure we are not the only shop that has to work on conveying women's equal competence to the general public in a bike shop setting! Does anyone have any posters, simply-written policies, or ideas? Thank you! Jennifer *Coopérative La Bikery Co-operative* *Centre de vélo communautaire * *Community Bicycle Centre* *120 boul.
