Dectaur Yellow Bikes
Topic: Local Information 9:10 pm EST, Jan 22, 2005

] You can adopt a bike by coming by our headquarters during
] a work session, picking out a bike and paying a $25
] refundable deposit. You may keep the bike as long as you
] wish and return it for repair or exchange if you have a
] problem.

Initially, it was exactly GTA: they just left yellow bikes around in bike racks unlocked. You took one, rode it to your destination, and left it at a rack when you were done. Now they only do adoptions, though.

Very good bikes available. Very nice people. Cute kittens and dogs that play in and out of the piles of equipment. Work sessions on Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings. T

These people are great. Just a kick ass bunch of people.

A related project is the Sopo Bicycle Cooperative (name may change tomorrow). A bunch of people getting together to pool resources to fix bikes, rehab old bikes and get them to kids/people, do bike advocacy, etc. Actually, there's a meeting tomorrow night in Reynoldstown if anyone is interested: www.sopobikes.org
