to bring this topic back to life, i have been looking at their website because me and a friend are setting up a bike coperative here in manchester UK. we've been involved in anarchism/activism for a while, so the bike project is an extension of our beliefs. weve got funding and are looking for spaces now, its all very exiting.
anyway i was looking at an old topic on circle a cycles http://www.bikeforums.net/archive/index.php/t-48597-p-1
and i was wondering what people thought of their politics.
I agree of course with their basic anarchist principles, but as some people stated in the old thread, they complain about the market yet sell things. but i dont think its right to complain about this, projects need money in society's current state..people cant just volunteer, as they need money; so we need money as it stands. an anarchist cooperative is the best way to make a living though i rekon.
oh and 'dminefield', when we live in a better world, people like circle a will be TEACHING us how to build frames for ourselves! how cool would that be
