staff review docs
by Geoff Heath 23 Mar '20

23 Mar '20

Hey folks So all this Covid-19/work from home whackiness has left me with some much needed admin time. Silver lining? I'm looking at revamping our staff reviews. I've attached what we used last year, which was great in lots of ways and a doc I want to continue to use. It's a goal-setting/self-review doc that I took the feedback from and worked performance feedback into. But I'm considering alternating years with a more traditional review process that measures folks' natural skillsets & personalities against their job descriptions and performance. Anyone have a staff performance review that they like and find useful? Thanks!

Motorized Bicycle Diversion
by eric clough 23 Mar '20

23 Mar '20

Hello Think Tank. First, I want to say thanks for all the great threads I have read on this list serv. I rarely post anything but I do read most posts and I have gained lots of great perspectives, including the recent impacts of covid, from you all. Now, on to what might be a welcome diversion from the whole virus topic. We have a very small community bike shop on the south coast of Oregon and we are constantly approached about motorized bicycles in one form or another. We are looking for examples of how to deal with those interested in motorizing bicycles. I will say that after a couple of experiences with community members bringing their 'moto-bikes' in to the shop we have now taken the position that we do not provide assistance on those projects and don't want such bikes in our shop. They are contrary to our mission of non-petroleum based transportation. How do other longer established shops handle this? We frequently get people in to buy rear wheels or frames they can use for moto-bikes. Or they want to purchase one of the bikes our volunteers have spent hours restoring and convert it to a moto-bike. We are considering saying no to any support for moto-bikes but we also recognize that community members use them as an alternative to cars/motorcycles for important transportation needs - like commuting to work. Thank you and solidarity! Front Street Community Bike Works Coos Bay, OR

Rubbing alcohol substitutes, spraying grips with bleach, etc.
by Andrew Shaw-Kitch 21 Mar '20

21 Mar '20

Thanks for the lively conversation on how to ride the line between serving our community and doing our part not to spread covid-19. This is an unprecedented situation from all angles, so it's nice to have this group of like-minded folks from all over looking at things from this one. Here at Bikes for Humanity PDX we have postponed all classes, in-person programs, and open hours. We are doing bike adoptions on an appointment basis: (1) bikes are posted online for folks to browse, folks referred to us from partner organizations describe what they are looking for (2) a time is set 30 mins+ away from another appointment, and the adopter is asked if they'll need helmet, light, and/or lock. (3) We meet in the parking lot behind our space with a couple bike options, and any other items they might need. We feel this is a satisfactory means toward meeting the needs of people trying to access bikes as either a diversion or way to get to work, as well as our own needs of revenue and the fulfillment of our mission. Does anyone have insight on how to maximize social distancing and minimize shared contact of surfaces? I am also interested from a mechanical perspective, what the effect of watered down bleach is on grips, saddles, bar wrap. Since we only have so much rubbing alcohol, and it won't be easier to acquire anytime soon, we are looking for a way to ensure contact points are sterilized going forward. Spray bleach-water on grips and wipe with rag designated as the touch-points sanitizing rag? And since rubbing alcohol is now prioritized for non-bike purposes, what is another means of cleaning bearing systems, rims and disc rotors? I will be taking the crisis/opportunity ("crisitunity" in the phrasing of Homer Simpson) of having the doors closed to catch up refurbishment of the 100 bikes in our basement... -- -- *Andrew Shaw-Kitch (pronouns: he/him/his)* *Executive Director* *andrew(a)b4hpdx.org <andrewsk.b4hpdx(a)gmail.com>* *Our mission is to increase access to safe and affordable bikes while empowering self-sufficiency in bike maintenance and commuting.*

Broke Spoke here in Lexington, Kentucky has officially suspended all operations out of concern for our volunteers and their families. We tried offering only drop off repairs but realized even that was asking too much from our volunteers. To the rest of you out there, stay safe and try and take care of each other the best you can.

Mission Statements and Fundraising Pitches
by Josh Bisker 06 Feb '20

06 Feb '20

Hey pals, we're working on raising funds and I'll probably be doing a fair amount of outreach both on the ThinkTank and individually to ask for help and guidance. First questions: 1) What's your mission statement? Green light go. 2) What do you feel are the three most important parts of your fundraising strategies for local granting orgs, city agencies, and deep-pocketed individuals? 3) What is one lesson you've learned about fundraising that you wish you'd known when you started out?

Park Tool School Mechanics Training
by Robert Christiansen 05 Feb '20

05 Feb '20

Hello all, The Sacramento Bike Kitchen would like to ramp up our educational offerings. The programs needs to be flexible yet structured and flexible to accommodate potential volunteer scheduling/availability fluctuations. I have been looking into the Park Tool Schools program as outlined in their BB-4TG Instructor Guide. I am impressed with their offering and feel it might fit our needs perfectly. We are thinking to first establish an in-house mechanic training course which could be mandatory for new volunteers and optional for current volunteer staff. We are 100% Volunteer run. We would then open it up to the public. Tuition if any has yet to be discussed. We would greatly appreciate any feed back from all of you if you have any experience with Park Tool School or similar curriculum. Secondly have any of you instituted a mandatory training for new volunteers? If so, any observations and reflections would be welcomed. Your time and efforts are greatly appreciated and we give many thanks to you all. Keep up the the great work. For The Sacramento Bike Kitchen, Robert Christiansen Http://sacbikekitchen.org

Re: [TheThinkTank] Visioning Meetings
by mist＠strans.org 09 Jan '20

09 Jan '20

Hi, In 2016, we crafted a long range, big picture vision when we took on the task of buying a 2 acre property with a 28,000 sq ft building in the heart of Missoula. (we raised the down payment outright with cash donations, then assembled 8 tenants to cover the mortgage) We had many pot lucks, round tables and one on one conversations. Then our two main staff (myself and our programs director, Emily) spent a bunch of time sifting, sorting, editing, re-dreaming; the 4 page doc is found here: http://www.freecycles.org/vision we update it every year or so (it's due once again for revision as time/people/energy change) It's focused on expanding our basic Free Cycles programs (Open Shop, Build a Bike), adding new programs (a hostel, learning center, bike share), our advocacy efforts (bikeways, roundabouts, road diets, sustainable paving) and also the dream of going off-grid, carbon neutral, no fossil fuels, and local and healthy materials to retrofit the building. the doc is brief, and our plan is to take on pieces as we can, expanding the pieces with work plans and rough budgets happy to talk more to anyone via mist(a)strans.org or 406.830.7676 -Bob Giordano, director, Free Cycles, MIST Quoting Alysia Herr <alysiaherr(a)gmail.com>: > Hi buds, > > I'm with Kickstand Community Bikes, a volunteer-run space in Vancouver, BC. > We're in the midst of some big changes: a shop move, general increase in > volunteer-time, and increase in shop user-ship.

Whole Sale Accounts - JBI
by momoko saunders 07 Jan '20

07 Jan '20

Hey all, I've been chatting with a lead sales rep from JBI regarding the troubles some bike collectives have in securing whole sale accounts. He was super sympathetic and wanted to see how he could help smooth over the process. Any of you all needing help in this regard? Is this still an issue? I know QBP is hard, but has anyone ever tried JBI and had issues? Feel free to DM me. I can send your contact to the rep so he can help facilitate an account creations. Cheers, -Momoko

Visioning Meetings
by Alysia Herr 07 Jan '20

07 Jan '20

Hi buds, I'm with Kickstand Community Bikes, a volunteer-run space in Vancouver, BC. We're in the midst of some big changes: a shop move, general increase in volunteer-time, and increase in shop user-ship. All good things, but we've decided that it's probably time for visioning meeting. However, it turns out folks have some different ideas about what this means. I have my own ideas, but I haven't participated in this sort of meeting before, so I'm not sure how to build a framework to make this exercise useful. Has anyone participated in a Visioning Meeting for their organization? What did it look like? Specifically, what was the scope and what were the goals? Who facilitated the meeting? How many people attended? What did you accomplish? If anyone has an agenda or outline they could share, I'd appreciate it. Thanks! Alysia
