Village Bicycle Cooperative

Directions Website Contact the organization

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 cooperative 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.

Novi, Michigan, is working on making it easier and safer to walk, bike, and roll around its overwhelmingly suburban community. There's a lesson here: You don't have to remake a city to give folks more transportation choices.

The City of Novi is continuing its efforts to promote healthy, active lifestyles through the creation of a comprehensive non-motorized transportation plan. The plan will result in a clear vision and implementation strategy to establish a safe, convenient and enjoyable environment for bicyclist, pede...

Aurora, an outer-ring suburb of Chicago, turned an ordinary downtown street into a protected bike connection to the Fox River Trail. It didn't require Copenhagen-style streets. Just a decision to make better use of the street space they already have!

Birmingham, Michigan is a car-oriented suburb. But it's investing in bike infrastructure on ordinary suburban streets. If a community like Birmingham can make room for biking, could Cleveland-area suburbs do the same?

TONIGHT, there will be a public input meeting at BayArts from 5:30pm to 7pm for updates to the Cleveland Metroparks Huntington Reservation. We strongly encourage our followers to attend and share their opinions on the park's bike infrastructure. For example, you might consider requesting an extension of the multipurpose paths in the park. The more folks we have turn out and show support for bike-friendly infrastructure, the better!

What if a bike-friendly suburb didn’t have to look like Amsterdam? Pinecrest, a suburb of Miami, is showing how communities can make walking and biking safer while preserving their suburban character. Could Cleveland suburbs do the same?

How can cycling lanes be developed in a car-centric village like Pinecrest, in Florida? Here are some key lessons!

🚲 Bike lanes keep everyone safe. Dedicated space for biking helps reduce conflicts between people biking and driving and makes our streets more predictable for all road users.
🚗 Bike lanes keep traffic moving. When more people have safe, practical ways to bike, there’s less pressure on our roads from single-occupancy vehicles.
💰 Bike lanes keep taxes low. Biking infrastructure can move more people using less space and with less wear and tear on roads than car-dependent transportation systems.

The most powerful thing about cycling is that it expands your map. Neighborhoods, trails, and distances start to feel different when you move through them yourself. Seeing your own town by bike is a whole different way of experiencing the world; you see so much that you wouldn't have seen otherwise!

It's important to give people options when building transportation infrastructure. Bike lanes help reduce traffic and lower transportation costs while promoting independence for folks who can't drive!
