This is great! I think an online event will be an exciting opportunity for everyone to "gather" together in a way we have never been able to before :)

I'm curious if this will be actively organized by the Mexico City team (our intended "next hosts") or if this will be an open collaboration for whomever has the time and skills to organize digitally?

Long Live Bike!Bike!

Hi all,

It has been confirmed.  There is unanimous interest.  27/27 respondents want to attend an online bike!bike!, which I've started calling Bike!Bike! Everywhere! 2021.

We're going to spend the weekend combing through the survey results and will let you know more on Tuesday, at which point I'll also put out a more formal call for presenters and facilitators. 

If you already offered to help on the interest form, I will email you some time in the next week. 

YAY BIKE!BIKE!

Unrelated: Three cheers for Jonathan Rosenbaum!  Six years ago, I was like, "hey, can you manually approve new wiki users [to keep out spambots]?" and Jonathan has been tirelessly doing it ever since.

Angel York is working on just such an initiative. She did send out an email with the subject line "Virtual BIKE! BIKE! interest survey " on April 18, but I am copying the contents below, please fill out her survey:

I have never made it to a Bike! Bike! because I try to keep a motor minimalist traveling radius.  But the Bici! Bici!s I went to in California were most excellent, I can only imagine how much fun Bike! Bike! is. 
 
So this year, my partner (Darin Wick) and I (Angel York) are offering to host an online Bike! Bike!!  Now!  With a smaller carbon footprint!!! I know I haven't been active here on the Think Tank for a while, so here's my wiki page if you're newer and curious about me.
 
Please fill out this interest survey before 8am on May 1*:
 
 
I am also happy to share the results (minus contact info) with anyone who is curious.
 
Thanks,
Angel
 
*(original deadline was midnight April 30 but I won't be awake at midnight)
 
Angel, I suggest extending the deadline, it looks like not everyone observed your post.

Hey all,

This morning I find myself really missing my bike bike friends. I wasn't able to make the one in 2019 and then, well, 2020 was a no go.

Any news on plans for 2021? Virtual? 

we could have it be really informal. Use the BikeBike website to post a topic and instead of a location, it would be a zoom room.

Just thinking of you all and wishing you the best wherever you are. 

Best, 
-Momoko
