Summit Cycling Center is community oriented, but we are organized as a cooperative. There is a small difference. However most of the objectives are the same.
I would be happy to respond to your questionaire.

I am a freelance writer currently working with Bicycle Times Magazine (http://www.bicycletimesmag.com/about_bicycleTimes) on an article featuring Community Bike shops. I thought I’d see if anyone here on thethinktank would have time to answer a few questions.
Here are some highlights covered in the article:
Define what makes a Community Bike shop
Look at the genesis of the Community Bike shop and its subsequent growth in cities around the world.
Discuss some of the challenges and rewards of running a shop and also look at how the presence of a local shop impacts the community beyond just the cyclist using the services.
If you are interested, reply to this email and I can send you the list of specific questions.
Thanks Everyone! Amanda
