Response to Dennis re Earn-a-Bike
by Mildred Locke 22 Sep '20

22 Sep '20

Hi Dennis, We run an Earn-a-Bike programme at the Bristol Bike Project so I might be able to help out. What exactly do you need and what is it for? Are you looking to set one up? I could forward our annual impact report if it's helpful. We manage to run our programme without funding because we use donated bikes and secondhand parts, volunteer time, and charge £20 at the end for a lock and lights, which covers our costs. Of course if you wanted to do the whole thing for free then you would need some funding but we don't have any funding docs that would be useful. Let me know if you'd like to discuss more. Here's the link to our 2019 impact report: https://thebristolbikeproject.org/2020/05/07/proudly-presenting-our-latest-… All the best, Mildred 21 Sep 2020 21:04:06 thethinktank-request(a)lists.bikecollectives.org: > Send Thethinktank mailing list submissions to > thethinktank(a)lists.bikecollectives.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://lists.bikecollectives.org/listinfo.cgi/thethinktank-bikecollectives.… > > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > thethinktank-request(a)lists.bikecollectives.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > thethinktank-owner(a)lists.bikecollectives.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Thethinktank digest..." > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Build a bike program design?
by Dennis Wollersheim 20 Sep '20

20 Sep '20

Hi All Does anyone have any grant application docs / program reports / documentation from their build-a-bike programs? We have some post-covid grants coming out trying to promote physical activity and social engagement among young people, it seems like build-a-bike would fit the bill. Thanks Dennis Secretary, The Bike Shed Melbourne Australia -- -- ------------------------------------------- Dennis Wollersheim -------------------------------------------

Emergency preparedness bike
by Sunny Nestler 15 Sep '20

15 Sep '20

Hey friends! I recall a workshop presented by a shop in CDMX on an emergency prep bike that was offering earthquake support. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Is there any documentation or someone who can remind me of the details? Don't want to reinvent the wheel ha ha Thank you, Sunny *Sunny Nestler*, *Programs Manager* AMS Bike Co-op + Bike Kitchen University of British Columbia 604-822-2453 | thebikekitchen.ca <http://thebikekitchen.ca>| @BikeKitchenUBC

Remote Learning in the Age of Coronavirus
by Wade Rubinstein 04 Sep '20

04 Sep '20

Hi. I run an in school Earn-A-Bike and open workshop program in Lowell, Massachusetts. All schools in Massachusetts, including the Lowell Public Schools, are closed for the remainder of the school year. Schools are moving to remote learning plans. How to adapt? What are your suggestions on creating remote learning programs and activities that engage students in cycling during the summer months (and possibly during the next school year)? Some students have access to bikes. Some do not. For students that do have bikes, many of their bikes are in disrepair. I'm sitting on a sizable inventory of donated bicycles that need refurbishment. Most students have access to a SmartPhone and/or other digital device (laptop, Chromebook, tablet). Many thanks for your input. Wade The Bike Connector Lowell, Massachusetts

Video of an endo
by David Coppley 31 Aug '20

31 Aug '20

Hey bike folks, I'm working adapting our bike ed course to a remote learning format, and want to tap into the thinktank hive-mind. Does anyone have a link to a good video of someone crashing via and 'endo'? Ideally it would be shot from the side, have clear footage, and not to gruesome (though I can edit knarly bits out). I'm looking for something to accompany an explanation of inertia, and act as an intro to an emergency braking lesson.

here's what we do with our most common cranksets and chainsets - cable tying both cranks together always advisable also have an overflow storage area at the rear of the workshop with cranksets, chainsets and odd single crankarms (ideally we'd like more 'shop floor' storage but space too limited under our workbench storage area) Warmest regards, *Lawrence Mohammed* Director & Head Mechanic Pro Bike Service C.I.C. *+44 (0)77 222 58587* *probikeservice.co.uk <https://probikeservice.co.uk>* /[Location, NOT delivery address] Pro Bike Service C.I.C.
