Meant to send this earlier, forgot, and recently came across a copy of it...

Here's a final draft from Community Cycles in Boulder:

Community Cycles is committed to providing an environment of diversity in which anyone is welcome to participate in our programs, activities, and events in order to learn about bicycle maintenance, repair, and operation.

Community Cycles does not exclude or deny access to our shop, its programs, activities and events, or employment to any person on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, veteran or legal status, age, gender, or disability.

Furthermore, Community Cycles expects all of its staff, members, volunteers and participants to promote a climate of diversity where everyone values individual and group differences, respects the perspectives of others and communicates openly. However, Community Cycles maintains the right to ask any person not able to publicly uphold this value during our programs, events, and activities within our shop, or at off location events to leave the premises immediately.

Here is BikeRoWave Coop Inc.'s version:
Equal opportunity & inclusive
Bikerowave does not discriminate on the basis of race or ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, age, children, or political viewpoints apart from bikes. Making bicycling accessible is important to Bikerowave and therefore Bikerowave has a sliding scale for low income customers. Bikerowave seeks to be inclusive, actively welcoming new Members into the organization.

Hey guys,

What are your co-op's anti-discrimination statements? Are they online? I couldn't find any on the wiki.

Thanks in advance,
