Defines our mission and history

The Bike Collective Network is a hub which anyone involved with not for profit bicycle projects can use to engage with each other, to share knowledge and experiences. Through various tools and gathering opportunities we learn from one another’s mistakes and triumphs, in the hope of growing the community of bicycle collectives and empowering its organizers.

The mission of the Bike Collective Network is to improve and encourage communication between existing and future community bike shops. Collectively we can improve a bigger wheel as opposed to re-inventing smaller ones.

Since 2008, the BCN has acted as an archive of information and public forum. A free space for people to ask questions or share what they have learned and engage with a diverse group of people with the common experience of working in community bike projects.

A map of known bike collectives is displayed. The organizations are collected from Bike!Bike! registration data.

Provides information in Bike!Bike!

Defines what Bike!Bike! is and links to bikebike.org. The definition is currently:

Bike!Bike! is an annual international conference organized by and for community bicycle projects. This conference is a space for participants from shops and related advocacy groups to converge in a different city each year over a 4 day period to have workshops and strengthen our social network. Workshops vary each year but tend to sit within the framework of structural organization, mechanics, social change, and anti-oppression strategies on the scale of the bike shop, the neighborhood, the city and other related networks.

The annual conference Bike!Bike! is hosted in a different city each year; regional Bike!Bike!s can take place at any time, in any location.

Provides information about the Alliance

Note: the relationship between the alliance and bike collectives has changed throughout the years, the current definition is somewhat outdated

The Alliance for Biking & Walking is North America's coalition of local and state bicycle and pedestrian advocacy organizations. We create, strengthen and unite advocacy leaders who are transforming their communities into great places to bike and walk.

The Alliance for Biking & Walking hosts the Bike Collectives Wiki. As an association of state and local biking and walking advocacy organizations, the Alliance also works to support community bike shops and projects because these initiatives are integral to expanding access to low-cost, healthy transportation throughout all communities.
