] 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

Sopo Bike Co-Op
Topic: Local Information 2:55 am EST, Dec 20, 2004

We just had our first meeting, to establish an Atlanta Bike Cooperative. "Sopo" for "South of Ponce," but the name may change. The idea is to have a group space where people can work on bikes. We salvage old bikes and make them good again and give them to people, etc. This core community then works to advance bike advocacy, safety, on and on. Its a very progressive, active crowd. Looks like its gonna happen.

Get out of your god damned car! Get on a bike! We can help!

] I take a right down North Avenue, and as it is a steep
] hill, I am going about 30mph as I approach the
] intersection of Courtland and North. A car pulls out in
] front of me without seeing me. It is scary. I slam on the
] brakes, and then continue to coast through the
] intersection. The car behind that one decides that he can
] make it, because he does not see me, because he is not
] looking for a bike, and comes within three feet of
] T-boning me before he slams on the brakes.
]
] Two lights up, a winnebago is tailgaiting me about 10
] feet behind me, and honks. I dutifully give him the
] finger over my right shoulder. An Atlanta PD car
] immediately pulls up beside me, and yells not to do that.
] I yell sorry back. I decide that he does not notice the
] "**** the Republican Party" sticker across the front of
] my green army helmet.

Atlanta is the WORST city to bicycle in, in America. All those angry hour long commuters rushing to escape the city to their racially pure suburbs really don't "have time" for a bicycle to share the road with them. Most suburbanites aren't even aware that you have all the legal rights in the street that they do.

I swear to god, after today I'd almost like to pack heat when I go out on my bike... if this wouldn't garuantee that I'd flip out and pop some caps in the tires of offending cars.

If you drive regularly in the city of Atlanta when you do not have to, I just want to extend a warm FUCK YOU. Jello had a bad day.

I'm not gonna ride for distance in the daytime anymore. Its only safe after 8-9pm.

Please nuke my city and every dirty car driving SOB in it.
