Christine,
It is possible to transfer their location onto Google Maps. Change the OSM file to a KML file. There are instructions online for doing this. Once it is a KML file, I think it can be merged with the current map; I merged a map of DC bike collectives with the current map once, but forget exactly what I did beyond following instructions from the Internet somehow. Please let me know how it goes!
The Google Map is new enough (and thus linked to from presumably few enough places) that now that I know about this open wiki alternative map, it would be nice to use them instead if anyone can help me figure out how to change it over. I'll try to do a more thorough search for information on that tomorrow.

Hi all,
Thank you for mapping bike collectives on Google Maps. It's very impressive to see so many of them all over the US.
The French "ateliers" chose to locate theirs on Openstreetmap
Is there an easy way to transfer their location on Google Maps?

This is a map of bike collectives. It may be of some use to you - it was originally created as a way of mapping bike collectives with locations, hours, and contact info for bike touring. If you find other bike collectives during your travels, please feel free to add those to the map.
