Hello Anthony,
Yes, the Smerig people are great, glad to hear they are back from
summer vacation.
I'm working on starting a community bike center in Amsterdam Noord,
right now what I have available is the downstairs of a community youth
center, where I teach bike repair workshops to kids. I'll bd a new
series starting soon after I get back from California... (where I am
right now, visiting family)
How long will you be in Amsterdam? We'll be returning there on
September 12th. I would love to get together with you, if you will
still be there!
Sincerely,
Wendy Monroe

Hello all--
I'm in Amsterdam as part of a year long journey across five
continents to study bicycle cultures, and I'm wondering if anyone on
the list knows about community bicycle programs in the Netherlands-- particularly in Amsterdam. Any tips or leads are greatly appreciated!I found "Smerig" yesterday--a very well organized and 25 year old co- op operating in formerly squatted but now legal space.
Any other suggestions are welcome!
Best,
