Usually they are in October. The last I heard was that there would be one in DF/Mexico City. Does anyone know if that is still on the table for 2024? We'd be thrilled to get a crew together to meet in person there.

Hey ya’ll,
Speaking from some experience volunteering with the Bike!Bike!Everywhere! crew for the last couple years, the Mexico City organizers for B!B! don’t seem to be planning actively anymore to make the event happen. I think the pandemic seriously disrupted the bike collective communities there and worldwide but it seems those in Mexico City are still recovering. I truly hope B!B! Mexico City happens one day, but it might be time to find a new host city if B!B! intends to make a comeback anytime soon.
Regaining the momentum to organize B!B! will be tough, and i’ve been at a loss in imagining how it might happen. Usually, B!B! Host cities are choosen at B!B! Itself, so without a B!B!, how can a new host city be picked?
Bike!Bike!Everywhere! (B!B!E!) Is a virtual conference held online and is separate from Bike!Bike! It’s a cool alternative to B!B! but i honestly miss the in-person event so much and hope it can come back.

If any city is interested in hosting Bike!Bike! I would encourage them to just do it.
We can restart the collective decision making process once Bike!Bike! is actually happening again.

Hi all,
I went to Mexico city to help organize the Foro Mundial de la Bicicleta. Some of the zapatista bike collectives that were in TJ were present ( Rueda Libre Chiapas), and they had their spaces, and events. Yvonne from Rol x Playa, one of the Tijuana organizers, was there too ( she has also been in some the Bike!Bike! Everywhere events, and in the language exchange. Resiste Pedal was not there, though, I and other tried contacting them many times including through the bike!bike! everywhere/ bike collectives list and whatsapp. At this point, I would say the best way forward would be for some, anyone to organize something even if it is regional, like for those local networks that survived to organize something, and try to get the people close by to come together. I am based in Massachusetts now, and volunteering with MassBike, the ED is one of the cofounders of Commonwheels in Allston, and there are other kitchens active close by ( BIke not Bombs, the Lowell connector) he talked about organizing some kind of Bike!Bike! regionally, and I would be down to help for that. What moves forward something like Bike!BIke! is the collective energy, the links and relationships built by sharing with like minde people, and it should dissapear, it is something precious :)

Love seeing this conversation and the continued energy around Bike!Bike! as an important, in-person event.
Whoever has the energy, the people, and the capacity should consider making B!B!24 a reality 🥰

Bike!Bike!Everywhere! (B!B!E!) Is a virtual conference held online and is separate from Bike!Bike! It's a cool alternative to B!B! but i honestly miss the in-person event so much and hope it can come back.

Hey ya'll,
Speaking from some experience volunteering with the Bike!Bike!Everywhere! crew for the last couple years, the Mexico City organizers for B!B! don't seem to be planning actively anymore to make the event happen. I think the pandemic seriously disrupted the bike collective communities there and worldwide but it seems those in Mexico City are still recovering. I truly hope B!B! Mexico City happens one day, but it might be time to find a new host city if B!B! intends to make a comeback anytime soon.
Regaining the momentum to organize B!B! will be tough, and i've been at a loss in imagining how it might happen. Usually, B!B! Host cities are choosen at B!B! Itself, so without a B!B!, how can a new host city be picked?
Bike!Bike!Everywhere! (B!B!E!) Is a virtual conference held online and is separate from Bike!Bike! It's a cool alternative to B!B! but i honestly miss the in-person event so much and hope it can come back.

Do you know who has information about that topic? You were part of the LA crew, and if I am correct you also helped a little to support the people in TJ right? Who would be the person to ask about that? Someone from LA/San Diego/TJ maybe?

+1 to inperson bike!bike! +2 to Montreal!!
I had a baby this year so I can’t commit to supporting as much as I’d like to. But I’d commit financial resources and also be down for some volunteer coordinating. There’s a lot of love for B!B!, I’m sure we could get something going as long as some collective takes the leap and says we’ll do it!

I'm been chatting with Kartapreet from Sopo in Atlanta recently and it sounds like there has been some interest in hosting from them, they were talking about a regional, but sounded like they were thinking big.
I would be so happy to also see this in MTL though, I've been wanting to see it happen there for years. One of the benefits and problems is that there are so many collectives there, but if someone is serious about hosting there, let's make it happen.
I'm not able to help as much as I used to on the tech side, but I'd still do what I can. Jonathan Rosenbaum, Angel York, and April Wick have all done a tonne of work this year to keep the tech up and running.

I'd love it to happen in Montreal! But Atlanta is a great city too.
I've only ever been to a NE regional B!B! (Troy, NY), but it was awesome.
Seems smart to bootstrap any way we can, here online or at a regional, just get it going again even if the first time back in the saddle isn't ideal.

Happy Gregorian New Year Y'all!
Any updates from Montreal or Atlanta? Just curious.

I'd love it to happen in Montreal! But Atlanta is a great city too.
I've only ever been to a NE regional B!B! (Troy, NY), but it was awesome.
Seems smart to bootstrap any way we can, here online or at a regional, just get it going again even if the first time back in the saddle isn't ideal.

I'm been chatting with Kartapreet from Sopo in Atlanta recently and it sounds like there has been some interest in hosting from them, they were talking about a regional, but sounded like they were thinking big.
I would be so happy to also see this in MTL though, I've been wanting to see it happen there for years. One of the benefits and problems is that there are so many collectives there, but if someone is serious about hosting there, let's make it happen.
I'm not able to help as much as I used to on the tech side, but I'd still do what I can. Jonathan Rosenbaum, Angel York, and April Wick have all done a tonne of work this year to keep the tech up and running.

The Bike Librarians would be down to travel to either of those places. We can help out with translation into Spanish if needed probably. We would be able to make a monetary donation as well. Has anyone heard of Zeffy as a fundraising platform? There are supposably no processing fees and I am very curious to hear from someone who's used it. Is there a bank account/EIN for B!B!?

I've only ever been to a NE regional B!B! (Troy, NY), but it was awesome.
Seems smart to bootstrap any way we can, here online or at a regional, just get it going again even if the first time back in the saddle isn't ideal.

I would be so happy to also see this in MTL though, I've been wanting to see it happen there for years. One of the benefits and problems is that there are so many collectives there, but if someone is serious about hosting there, let's make it happen.
I'm not able to help as much as I used to on the tech side, but I'd still do what I can. Jonathan Rosenbaum, Angel York, and April Wick have all done a tonne of work this year to keep the tech up and running.

Mexico City happens one day, but it might be time to find a new host city if B!B! intends to make a comeback anytime soon.
Regaining the momentum to organize B!B! will be tough, and i've been at a loss in imagining how it might happen. Usually, B!B! Host cities are choosen at B!B! Itself, so without a B!B!, how can a new host city be picked?

I think it is safe to say to QC Bike Collective is interested and would try to help. In-person B!B! was important as we developed as a new idea and would be wonderful to share with more of the QCB crew now! Maybe with enough help the effort of hosting can be somewhat mitigated.

Who in Montreal is wanting to coordinate bike bike 2024. I'd be very interested to see bike bike start up again. Covid has been hard on all our communities .
Bottom line. What shop in Montreal wants to go for it? And how can the community support that organization or coalition.

I've only ever been to a NE regional B!B! (Troy, NY), but it was awesome.
Seems smart to bootstrap any way we can, here online or at a regional, just get it going again even if the first time back in the saddle isn't ideal.

I'm been chatting with Kartapreet from Sopo in Atlanta recently and it sounds like there has been some interest in hosting from them, they were talking about a regional, but sounded like they were thinking big.
I would be so happy to also see this in MTL though, I've been wanting to see it happen there for years. One of the benefits and problems is that there are so many collectives there, but if someone is serious about hosting there, let's make it happen.
I'm not able to help as much as I used to on the tech side, but I'd still do what I can. Jonathan Rosenbaum, Angel York, and April Wick have all done a tonne of work this year to keep the tech up and running.

Hi all,
I went to Mexico city to help organize the Foro Mundial de la Bicicleta. Some of the zapatista bike collectives that were in TJ were present ( Rueda Libre Chiapas), and they had their spaces, and events. Yvonne from Rol x Playa, one of the Tijuana organizers, was there too
(
she has also been in some the Bike!Bike! Everywhere events, and in the language exchange. Resiste Pedal was not there, though, I and other tried contacting them many times including through the bike!bike! everywhere/ bike collectives list and whatsapp. At this point, I would say the best way forward would be for some, anyone to organize something even if it is regional, like for those local networks that survived to organize something, and try to get the people close by to come together. I am based in Massachusetts now, and volunteering with MassBike, the ED is one of the cofounders of Commonwheels in Allston, and there are other kitchens active close by
(
BIke not Bombs, the Lowell connector) he talked about organizing some kind of Bike!Bike! regionally, and I would be down to help for that. What moves forward something like Bike!BIke! is the collective energy, the links and relationships built by sharing with like minde people, and it should dissapear, it is something precious :)

Speaking from some experience volunteering with the Bike!Bike!Everywhere! crew for the last couple years, the Mexico City organizers for B!B! don't seem to be planning actively anymore to make the event happen. I think the pandemic seriously disrupted the bike collective communities there and worldwide but it seems those in
Mexico
City are still recovering. I truly hope B!B! Mexico City happens one day, but it might be time to find a new host city if B!B! intends to make a comeback anytime soon.
Regaining the momentum to organize B!B! will be tough, and i've been
at
a loss in imagining how it might happen. Usually, B!B! Host cities are choosen at B!B! Itself, so without a B!B!, how can a new host city be picked?
Bike!Bike!Everywhere! (B!B!E!) Is a virtual conference held online and is separate from Bike!Bike! It's a cool alternative to B!B! but i honestly miss the in-person event so much and hope it can come back.

Happy Gregorian New Year Y'all!
Any updates from Montreal or Atlanta? Just curious.

I'd love it to happen in Montreal! But Atlanta is a great city too.
I've only ever been to a NE regional B!B! (Troy, NY), but it was awesome.
Seems smart to bootstrap any way we can, here online or at a regional, just get it going again even if the first time back in the saddle isn't ideal.

I'm been chatting with Kartapreet from Sopo in Atlanta recently and
it
sounds like there has been some interest in hosting from them, they were talking about a regional, but sounded like they were thinking
big.
I would be so happy to also see this in MTL though, I've been wanting to see it happen there for years. One of the benefits and problems is that there are so many collectives there, but if someone is serious about hosting there, let's make it happen.
I'm not able to help as much as I used to on the tech side, but I'd still do what I can. Jonathan Rosenbaum, Angel York, and April Wick have all done a tonne of work this year to keep the tech up and running.

Small upstate NY community bike shop here, none of our members have been to a B!B! and we would be down to travel to Montreal or wherever!

I had a baby this year so I can’t commit to supporting as much as I’d like to. But I’d commit financial resources and also be down for some volunteer coordinating. There’s a lot of love for B!B!, I’m sure we could get something going as long as some collective takes the leap
and
says we’ll do it!

Hi all,
I went to Mexico city to help organize the Foro Mundial de la Bicicleta. Some of the zapatista bike collectives that were in TJ
were
present ( Rueda Libre Chiapas), and they had their spaces, and
events.
Yvonne from Rol x Playa, one of the Tijuana organizers, was there too
(
she has also been in some the Bike!Bike! Everywhere events, and in
the
language exchange. Resiste Pedal was not there, though, I and other tried contacting them many times including through the bike!bike! everywhere/ bike collectives list and whatsapp. At this point, I would say the best way forward would be for some, anyone to organize something even if it is regional, like for those local networks that survived to organize something, and try to get
the
people close by to come together. I am based in Massachusetts now,
and
volunteering with MassBike, the ED is one of the cofounders of Commonwheels in Allston, and there are other kitchens active close by
(
BIke not Bombs, the Lowell connector) he talked about organizing some kind of Bike!Bike! regionally, and I would be down to help for that. What moves forward something like Bike!BIke! is the collective
energy,
the links and relationships built by sharing with like minde people, and it should dissapear, it is something precious :)

Speaking from some experience volunteering with the Bike!Bike!Everywhere! crew for the last couple years, the Mexico City organizers for B!B! don't seem to be planning actively anymore to
make
the event happen. I think the pandemic seriously disrupted the bike collective communities there and worldwide but it seems those in
Mexico
City are still recovering. I truly hope B!B! Mexico City happens one day, but it might be time to find a new host city if B!B! intends to make a comeback anytime soon.
Regaining the momentum to organize B!B! will be tough, and i've been
at
a loss in imagining how it might happen. Usually, B!B! Host cities
are
choosen at B!B! Itself, so without a B!B!, how can a new host city be picked?
Bike!Bike!Everywhere! (B!B!E!) Is a virtual conference held online
and
is separate from Bike!Bike! It's a cool alternative to B!B! but i honestly miss the in-person event so much and hope it can come back.
