Bike!Bike! is an international, annual gathering organized by and for community bicycle projects. The 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.
What is a community bicycle project?
From collectives that use the bicycle as an excuse to change society, economy and the environment. Non-profit groups that have a community bike shops, cooperatives and other projects that promote the use of the bicycle and that come together to turn their communities into a place where riding is easier, more inclusive, safer and more fun. The list below uses the criteria found in the old Bicycle Organization Organization Project for what constitutes a community bike shop. The bike project need not meet all these criteria. Rather, it is a general list of qualities which are common among many bicycle projects.
- Bike shops that are accessible to people without money
- Organizations that recycle bicycles and parts
- Shops that have an educational focus, teaching others how to fix bikes
- Shops that are volunteer run
- Organizations that ship bikes to communities in other countries.
- Shops that provide free or low-cost services to the community.
- Non-profit bicycle organizations
How can I find out about the next in-person Bike!Bike! event?
Different organizers seem to use different platforms. Organizers might announce through some or all of the following:
- BikeBike.org - Almost everyone seems to announce here
- Mastodon/Fediverse
- ThinkTank email list (sign up here)
- other?

What types of workshops will there be?
Workshops are organized and run by attendees, they can be about anything that might concern community bicycle projects and can be in any format including presentations, hands-on workshops, discussion groups, and bicycle rides. If you would like to host your own workshop you can enter details after registering. What ends up in the final schedule and when they happen are decided on by the conference hosts.
