Ideas for hanging baskets and racks
by Todd Spinner 27 Jan '17

27 Jan '17

We are having a big shop cleaning party next week. One of the areas that I would like to see us organize better is our Wald style wire baskets and racks. Do any co-ops have ideas on how to hang them in a DIY manner? Pictures would be great and might help more than just our co-op. Thanks, Todd -- Todd Spinner The Bike Project of Urbana-Champaign www.thebikeproject.org

Re: [TheThinkTank] Thethinktank Digest, Vol 124, Issue 5
by Heather Nugen 17 Jan '17

I think it depends on whether or not your organization can get traction with the city/other groups as just a bike organization (in terms of whether or not this type of activity is "the role" of a CBS). In some communities where there is more hype/presence of biking as a day-to-day activity, I don't think you have to grind as hard as a shop to have your work seen as "legitimate". In Detroit at least, many organizations/folks introduced to BAB for the first time were like, "Oh, you do bikes? That's cute."-- on top of there being broader, unaddressed community needs-- so (at least when I was there) it would've really paid off to multitask if the organization was able (we really rarely were able). I think whether it's an appropriate role for your organization would come down to two questions 1) is this a need in your community that another organization or network of organizations is unable to address without your support 2) does your organization have the resources to do that kind of work sustainably and practically? The main thing that I think any community organization/non-profit can run into is the pressure to be *everything* the constituents or community wants/needs. It's better to focus on what your org has (and can get) the resources to do well, rather than trying to fill every niche/meet every need-- even when there's money on the table.

Community/Neighborhood clean up programs
by momoko saunders 17 Jan '17

17 Jan '17

Hi, Do any of your cities engage you as community leaders to help coordinate neighborhood clean up days? Bike collectives have the opportunity to be community and neighborhood centers. Should cities engage us to be more civically involved? Or is that for other non-profits or organization? The first question is what I'd really like to know about. The second is more a philosophical, what is our mission? Thanks for any responses -Momoko
