New Brunswick Bike Library.

It's hard starting something like this, I've been at the NBBL since just about the start, and it's slow going. You really have to decide the structure first... are you going to be a non-profit bike shop? co-op owned? worker owned? Free tool space? Lending library?

Check out the Santa Cruz bike church (best model, I think) and the vancouver bike kitchen at UBC. Also, TimesUp! NYC. All great people. PM me if you have other questions...
