Re: [TheThinkTank] 36 days till Bike Bike!!!!!
Hi,
I would like to help with the Bike 101 classes, but I can not attend. The
good news is we wrote a book about Recycled Bikes and loaning them out! It
is called "Anybody's Library Bike Book" and is available at www.Lulu.com .
The book covers a lot of the subjects you will be addressing, and some
specific ones about fixing hundreds of bikes, and dealing with hundreds of
participants of all stripes!
We have loaned out over 4000 bikes, been doing this for over 8 years now!
You can check out the book and what we are doing at www.librarybikes.org .
I'll send a flier when I get home, (on bike vacation) and stay tuned for the
release of thousands of Public Bikes in Paris! The world is ready for a
trendy bike lifestyle, I feel it.
Bill Burton, Director, LibraryBikes.org
p.s. Maybe we can get someone from our group out there to talk about what we have been doing, maybe one of the mechanics for the Bike 101 day. Bill

Hello Everyone,
There are a whole 36 days left until Bike Bike!!!!
Can you believe it!!!
In such a little bit of time you, and hundreds (maybe) of your compatriots in recycled bicycle love, will be getting together for three action packed days of workshops, presentations, networking, bike rides, movies, and dance parties.
So what does this mean?
It means that if you want to do a workshop we need to hear from you ASAP!!!!!!
Please send us a description a brief description including a) subject matter, b) workshop format, and c) any facilities preferences/av needs
Please submit your name, the organization you are representing (if applica- ble), full contact information, and a short biography of yourself and/or your organization. Please send in your proposals via email to workshops@bike-pgh.org, and in- clude the word Proposal in the subject line.
If we have already spoken and confirmed whatever workshop you are doing please send us a description paragraph that we can put on the website.
We especially need people to help facilitate workshops for the Bike 101 day. We need people to lead workshops/discussions on recruiting volunteers, programming (EAB for adults & kids, different models) how to get & keep a space, intro to legal stuff (501C3 status, fiscal sponsorship etc) getting donations of tools & bikes, organizational models and more. And what we would really love is for all the shops that are just starting ujp to tell us what they want to learn in Bike 101 day, so that we can be sure we have relevant workshops. Also, we would love it if you wanted to help us organize this day and correspond with the people facilitating workshops.
In the coming days we will have a tentative list up of all the 20+ workshops up on the website bikebike.org
Also, PlEaSe PLeaSe pLeAse send us your registration forms. We need to know how many people are coming so we can arrange housing, bike loans, cook sufficient food and schedule enough workshops for everyone. If you didnt get a registration form you can download it at bikebike.org.
If you have questions you can call us at Free Ride at 412 731 4094 or e-mail general questions to freeride@bike-pgh.org and workshop questions to workshops@bike-pgh.org
See you in 36 days or earlier if you want to come early and help set it all up and also help us prepare loaner bikes.
Bike On, Your fellow bicycle lovers at Free Ride!

Two of us are coming from Minneapolis, MN... anyone else coming from that direction with whom we could grab a ride?
Also we will probably be doing a workshop on behalf of our group Gear UP: Cyclcing Toward Equality on anti-oppression and bike activism...

Hey Rachael,
You are more than welcome to show a documentary and tv spot. I was
tyring to get someone to organize a mini film fest because one of the
directors of "still we ride" is also coming and wanted to show the
movie. We just need someone to coordinate and try to schedule the
movies at different times so that we can put it in the program. I
am pretty sure that we have a room available to show movies
throoughout the conference. If that is definite would you be
interested in sending an email call out for movies and coordinating a
schedule of them. the workshops are all divided into 1 1/2 hour blocks.
thanks
andalu

re: movies.. in addition to Still We Ride, I was planning to bring some other shorts from the PDX filmed by bike festival and other collected goodies, but i personally dont feel able to coordinate a screening aspect due to intense busy-ness problem in the next couple weeks. is it possible to put a call out for people to bring movies if they gottem, and create a bulletin board with timeslots where folks slot in videos and take responsibility for hitting play? it would be a less coordinated/programmed approach, but i thought i would put it out there as a possible middle ground. ovr&out andrew

to shed a bit of light on this. ok, the place that we are holding
the conference is called Pittsburgh filmmakers. they have two
theaters in the building. that weekend, they will be showing the
film "B.I.K.E.," kinda inspired by us, but also because of a local
film dude wanted to bring it to town. we're working out the details
to get conference goers a reduced ticket, but in all reality, it is
only $5. that will probably be running at like 7 or 8 ish.
what we could do afterwards when it gets dark (maybe gotta talk with
some folks) is have a ride that nite to somewhere outdoors where we
can set up a projector (i have one) and we can screen everyone's
movies. if it's raining, we could potentially use one of the large
rooms at filmmakers. i'd rather an outdoor movie thing tho. Friday
nite would make the most sense for this.
so anyway, bring your movies!! we'll work something out.
in addition, we could do what andrew said and have a room where
someone could push play.

shorts from the PDX filmed by bike festival and other collected goodies,
but i personally dont feel able to coordinate a screening aspect due to intense busy-ness problem in the next couple weeks. is it possible to put a call out for people to bring movies if they gottem, and create a bulletin board with timeslots where folks slot in videos and take responsibility for hitting play? it would be a less coordinated/programmed approach, but i thought i would put it out
there as a possible middle ground. ovr&out andrewbaglady wrote:
Hey Rachael, You are more than welcome to show a documentary and tv spot. I was tyring to get someone to organize a mini film fest because one of
the
directors of "still we ride" is also coming and wanted to show the movie. We just need someone to coordinate and try to schedule the movies at different times so that we can put it in the program.
I am
pretty sure that we have a room available to show movies
throoughout the
conference. If that is definite would you be interested in
sending an
email call out for movies and coordinating a schedule of them. the workshops are all divided into 1 1/2 hour blocks. thanks andalu

Hi, I would like to help with the Bike 101 classes, but I can not attend. The good news is we wrote a book about Recycled Bikes andloaning them
out! It is called "Anybody's Library Bike Book" and is available at www.Lulu.com <http://www.Lulu.com> . The book covers a lot of the subjects you will beaddressing, and some
specific ones about fixing hundreds of bikes, and dealing with hundreds of participants of all stripes! We have loaned out over 4000 bikes, been doing this for over 8 years now! You can check out the book and what we are doing at www.librarybikes.org <http://www.librarybikes.org> . I'll send a flier when I get home, (on bike vacation) and stay tuned for the release of thousands of Public Bikes in Paris! The world isready
for a trendy bike lifestyle, I feel it. Bill Burton, Director, LibraryBikes.org p.s. Maybe we can get someone from our group out there to talk about what we have been doing, maybe one of the mechanics for the Bike 101day. Bill
