Village Bicycle Cooperative

Village Bicycle Cooperative We are non profit volunteer based organization centered around bicycle education and advocacy. Check www.villagebicycle.org for a description of services.

Although our work space happens to be located in Bay Village, our organization is for everyone in the region, not just Bay Village residents. Our education offerings this year will focus on teaching basic bicycle maintenance and safe bicycling techniques. Class times and dates will be posted on our website as they are finalized. In line with our mission of sustainability and education, the coopera

tive also repairs donated bicycles and sells them back to the community. This keeps usable bicycles from ending up in a landfill, provides education opportunities for volunteers, and allows the public to purchase low-cost bicycles. All proceeds help fund the cooperative. We continue to seek creative, collaborative relationships with any business or organization interested in furthering bicycling in our community. During open hours, all are welcome to stop by our work space in the basement of the Bay Village Community House, at 303 Cahoon Rd., to see our mission in action. At our work space, you can learn more about our mission by talking with volunteers, you can view and purchase used bicycles, and you can work on your bicycle. Because we are 100% volunteer-operated, our work space hours vary from week to week. Current open hours are posted to the Open Shop tab of our website, www.villagebicycle.org. You may also contact us at [email protected] if you have any questions, are looking to collaborate, or would like to get involved.

Ohio's statewide e-bike law serves as an effort to provide some regulation and standards for a type of powered vehicle that is growing in popularity. Before you hop on an e-bike, it's important to know: Can I ride my e-bike there?

Ohio recently passed a statewide e-bike law, which mirrors those in a growing list of states. It's an effort to provide some regulation and standards for a type of powered vehicle that is growing in popularity, and destined to share pathways and trails with non-assisted machines. Before we can delve...

In Quebec, biking for transportation has more than tripled in popularity since the mid-1990s. How this is happening should surprise nobody: safe and separated cycling infrastructure.

It’s a shift in how Quebec cycling is perceived: not as recreation, but as a legitimate, everyday transportation option.

Local business owners and policymakers: If you're considering installing bike parking, this photo provides a good example of best practices to adhere to. Notice the angular tubing, which prevents the quiet use of pipe cutters for theft. The racks are also spaced far enough apart to allow for larger bikes to be parked with room for the rider to maneuver while on foot. And perhaps most importantly, this is entrance-adjacent to the building!

Kids who grow up biking learn how to navigate their world, not just be driven through it. This is one reason it's so important that we create bike-friendly infrastructure that facilitates for kids!
