Automating community bike shop information flow with a freeware system
9 personnes s'intéressent à cette présentation.A demonstration of a virtually free hosted web platform for entering, tracking, and reporting your shop's major transactions related to bikes, people, and money. Enter bikes into inventory, print sales tags, email donation/sales receipts, track visitor hours and credits, track expenses and sales, publish your bikes to a searchable catalog on your website, collect email addresses, and more. An account for using this system is available at no cost to non-profit community bike shops, however donations from financially sustainable shops are welcome to help offset operational and development costs.
This workshop is a demo of a custom system used by a few shops in Delaware and New Jersey. The workshop might be more useful and complete if others wanted to join to share what tools they use for shop management.

Back to School: challenges and opportunities for college town community bike shops
8 personnes s'intéressent à cette présentation.Would love to partner with a couple of other college town community shop leaders to shape some content for, and present, Part 1. Particularly any shop leaders who have managed to obtain subsidized or gratis shop space on a university campus or other significant funding from a university.
_______
University towns are excellent environments for community bike shops. Not only is cycling an efficient mode of campus transportation, but universities are hubs of education, social equity, and environmental activism. Hear dozens of ways in which other established shops in college towns have partnered with universities, ranging from abandoned bike recycling, to mechanical engineering design projects, to advocating bike safety and security. Share your experiences, learn from others, and bring home successful models you can reference in proposals to your local community, or to inform starting a new community shop in a college town.
Part I: Presentation of ideas and solutions specific to college town communities, including ways to formally and informally collaborate with administration, students, faculty, and parents in the areas of safety and security, bike recycling, academic collaborations, campus & transportation planning, community relations, and more.
Part II: Discussion among all participants, including further ideas and Q&A amongst each other.

Using open-source hardware and software with bikes to advocate for safer streets
4 personnes s'intéressent à cette présentation.We describe a bike outfitted with two ultrasonic ranging sensors, two cameras, a GPS, a real-time clock, and an inertial measurement unit containing an accelerometer and gyro. Together, this array of open-source sensors has allowed us to determine when and where motorists adhere to the “3 foot law” in several key roadways the US city of Atlanta, GA. In addition to overtake distance, the system permits the cyclist to determine their absolute speed, their absolute position and time, the relative speed of overtaking cars, road surface roughness, and incline. We propose dimensionless number that serves to rank the safety of bike lanes (and other infrastructure) across the region of study relative to an abstract “perfect” reference bike lane. Both the bike and instrumentation were developed at open-access and DIY organizations in Atlanta such as the Sopo Bicycle Cooperative. We hope this presentation will provide insight to others wishing to integrate open-source electronics with bicycles.
