BIKE COLLECTIVE CLOSED TIL OCTOBER 18TH

Sorry to anyone this inconveniences but we will not be able to open til the 18th of this month due to lack of volunteers. I have received a few emails about projects and it would be awesome if you came by on the 18th from 4-7pm.

******UPDATES*****

Hey everyone,
Since our last post we have installed a door to our bike collective shack on the cheap! It had too be done... no more stolen bikes!!!! We are continuing with Sunday as our collective meeting/work day. This seems to be working out fine, thanks to our awesome member Phillip. Thanks Phillip. He and I will be alternating work days. We are always in need of more volunteer. With a good size COLLECTIVE the regular operating of this endeavor is no sweat. Please email me at sleeperspeaks@riseup.net to volunteer. Also our community bike project is still operating smoothly with only one unfortunate event...(((( Vincent Eugene: Last seen 07/17/09 with a Sun Cruiser, black )))). If you want to go for a ride or need to borrow a bike for short period of time, make an appointment to pick up a bike (sleeperspeaks@riseup.net) Its free, its fun, be safe! hahaha

We are always in need of good/ usable tools and parts.
*inner tubes
*cables/ houseing
We always welcome new volunteers.

For community bike info contact
sleeperspeaks@riseup.net

We also take suggestions. This is a community project, let us know how we can better make connections, or how you would like to be involved.

CHANGES ON WORK DAYS!!!!

After our meeting it was decided that Sundays 4 to 7pm would work out better as a work day for more accessibility. We will not be open Thursday anymore. Sorry if this inconveniences anyone, but if you really need to get in this Thursday the 12th please email me at sleeperspeaks@riseup.net and we can work something out.

Bike colective meeting update

We are keeping the Thursday as our meeting date. This week Thursday the 11th, we need everyone who can come out to help rebuild our roof. We are going to make a wooden roof, so we'll need as many hands as we could get. The Thursday of the 18th we will have a wheel truing workshop that to a very kind donation! Also we set a date for the bike collective fundraiser----> Friday July 3rd. If you know of any bands that might want to play, please let us know so we could get in contact with them.

* June 11- roof repair day
* June 15- Bike master plan summit! 6-8pm Jose Marti Park ((( Link below)))
* June 18- Wheel truing workshop
* Bike collective fundraiser Date TBA- most likely in early July

we look forward to hearing from you, and seeing you guys at our next meeting.

Bike collective meeting!!!!!!!!!!

Lets meet, hang out, and make plans. We want to schedule work days, workshops, fundraisers, and a maintenance day.
Maybe there is a better day to meet? ( we want more people to show up)
Its would be nice to learn new skills. ( Maybe you could do a workshop)
- welding
-truing wheels
-fixing brakes
- anything really
We still don't have enough funds to buy a tool set ( lets have an awesome FUNdraiser!)
And our roof caved in again ( we could schedule a day to fix the roof... permanently? with all this rain, a tarp roof just don't cut it! )

Tue. June 9th 7pm at the Firefly 219 NE 20th st

Come out and help create a sort of collective you want to see.
