I second the Bike!Bike! suggestion. I went as one of my first duties for Recycle-A-Bike here in Providence, and it was and continues to be a huge help for our organization.
Bikes not Bombs in Boston is probably the closest group to you. I'd also recommend getting in touch with Worcester Earn-A-Bike (http://www.worcesterearnabike.org/). We gave a bunch of our bikes to them a couple months ago as we prepared to put our inventory in storage before our move.

eric,
i highly suggest one or both of you come to bikebike! this year. it's motivating, inspiring, informative, and just all around awesome. you'll meet like minded folks who are in all stages of forming/running collectives, and you'll pick up invaluable contacts and awesome friends.
check out www.bikebike.org if you haven't already.
josh. community cycles, boulder.

I'm looking for people interested in forming a New Hampshire bike collective, in the greater Manchester area. The idea is nascent but the need is there. To the best of my knowledge to closest bike collectives are in Boston but there is a lot of potential to start something both good and fun here. Drop a line to the ThinkTank if interested. There is currently no specific time frame and I'm more interested in substance than speed.
Looking forward to hearing from ... well ... anyone.
