Anyone happen to see the article about a bike co-op/workshop starting up in the CBD in last weeks local rag?
About time we caught up with the other capitals on this type of thing.
Anyone here involved or have any further details?

Maybe I missed something, or just didnt pay enough attention, but what does it actually do?

[Biffidus]

The aim of the the co-op, which will be supported by the Bicycle Institute of SA, is to operate as a community bicycle workshop co-operative dedicated to the repairing, and recycling, of bicycles.

Visitors and volunteers with or without experience will be encouraged and empowered to learn how to
repair their own bicycles or recycle old donated ones. A volunteer roster will be used to maintain regular opening hours.
