Blogspot + RSS feed

Alright, so I just copied all of the posts here to a blogspot page, which I will be updating alongside this one from now on. The reason for this is that blogspot provides us with an RSS feed, which can be viewed here. If you don't know (or care) what an RSS feed is, you can ignore this post. The current blog will update as normal.

Spoke 'n' Wrench

The Radish Infoshop, which accepts donations for The Yellow Bike Project, has been putting up a community-run bicycle workshop every Sunday from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm. While this is pretty neat in and of itself, they're also letting people work on yellow bikes!

The Radish is located at 818 W. College Street.

KOLR 10 Interview (UPDATED!)

has just interviewed a couple of people from the Yellow Bike Project. I don't know when their piece on us will be airing, but once it's up on their website I'll be sure to link to it.

UPDATE: The KOLR10 piece on us can be found here. They also have a print version available here.

Queen City Cycle

Queen City Cycle has agreed to be a collection point for us. Their address is 301 W. Walnut, if anyone is interested in dropping off a bike there.

Yellow Bikes are a-go!

Good news, guys!

Eight Yellow Bikes are now ready to go. We dropped three off at The Radish, and the other five went downtown.

We'll be getting some more up-and-running at The Radish next Tuesday evening.

The Yellow Bike Blog

The Springfield Yellow Bike Blog is the official website of the Springfield Yellow Bike Project. The Yellow Bike Project is a community-run effort to cut down on traffic, pollution, poverty, and crime. And we’re going to do it by giving away free bicycles!

Well, not quite free. The idea is that anybody who wants to can take a bicycle, and ride it where ever they need to go. Then, when somebody else needs a bike, they will be able to use that same bike to get where they need to go. It’s amazing!

And even more amazing still is the fact that we're going to keep a blog about it, right here for you to read! Woo!
