The day everybody biked instead

2 people are interested in this workshop

This will be a workshop about spreading the sheer joy of a mature mainstream bicycle culture that includes storytelling and a group brainstorming/action planning session on how to make the future happen faster. We'll start with the Coles Notes' story of the Plain Bicycle project (how two Winnipeggers and a Vancouverite and colleagues from the major cities brought a 40' shipping container full of abandoned Omafiets (grandma bikes) to Winnipeg and why). Together, we'll talk about what setting up a community bike shop looks like in a country with 1.3 bicycles per person, how priorities and mindsets differ and conspire to do all we can to bring a little bit of Holland home.
