This is a slightly different question. Rich mentions about having links to other shops on our web pages. I'm into this but would like to link to the list in the wiki because it is the most accurate and up-to-date:
http://www.bikecollectives.org/wiki/index.php?title=Community_Bicycle_Organizations
Are there url flags that I can use to make the wiki toolbars, edit buttons disappear and only display the list of shops? There are two links below. The fist is static and has the look that I want. The second is dynamically linked to the wiki but has all of the wiki formatting. Scroll to the bottom of following two links to see what I am talking about:
static list: http://www.austinyellowbike.org/about_ybp.htm
iframe dynamic list that looks bad: static list:
http://www.austinyellowbike.org/about_ybp2.htm
Maybe we could create a style for this page so each of the shops could include it in their webpage. Any ideas?

Some guy named Morgan in San Fran runs this site, he said there was a way to auto-sync the two mediawiki sites, so that the Bike Collective Network wiki would have the listing too. If anyone knows how I can get ahold of Morgan, let me know.

Hey All,
I envision in 10 years bike collectives will be the equivalent to the
salvation army, i.e. the first place you, (average America), think of is
a bike collective when it comes to donate a bike.
Here in Boulder we have many transient people with the university and
all. I know we often talk about other shops around the country and the
world. People from other shops have stopped by to say hi and some of
our members have said hi to other groups.
What I'm getting at is let's really do what we can to pose this as a
movement with people all over the country working towards getting people
on bikes. One way we can do this is to link to each other from our
websites.
Johnathan has done a great job of putting together a directory on the
bike collective wiki. Now if we all ad those links on our individual
sites we can really boost our collective web presence while promoting
the "bike collective" movement.
We've put all the links we could find on our site, let us know if we
missed one http://communitycycles.org/splash/?page_id=6
I encourage you to copy and past the code into your links page.
