When I started @mplscargobikelibrary.com last year I knew our bikes could be used to help our community.
I had NO idea they'd be helping neighbors in such dire circumstances.
ICE out, bikes in.

I would try to work up to doing this if I had one or checked one out from @mplscargobikelibrary.com next year. Should be able to get to SLP Costco on bike lanes. But I'd also have to have a reason to go to Costco, which I don't really. But #ETrikes for the win!
This electric tricycle was spotted at Costco by my partner. Justifiably parked in one of the handicap accessible species.
And they say no one bikes to Costco!

We had planned a winter hibernation to give our volunteer team time to rest.
Instead, our full team is deep in mutual aid work & several bikes are back out to help w/ community needs.
Our @bunchbike.com will help an injured bike friend join the ride for Alex Pretti tomorrow.
See you there?

I have previously made bike riding plans but if anyone is going to this and needs a sled I have a couple I can lend
🚨 Sled Fest is our area's premiere sledding event for adults who haven't sledded in a long time, and this year it's happening at Powderhorn Park on New Year's Day!

We supported members who:
-had never ridden a bike before
-hadn’t ridden a bike in decades
-were nervous about cargo bikes
Our members used our bikes to transport adults (some w/ mobility needs), children, dogs, groceries, garage sale finds.
They commuted, had joyrides & rode for exercise.
