weekend recap

great weekend! thanks to everybody who went down to paseo de todos, put on by the amazing people of paseo urbano de tijuana. a whole group of san diegans stormed the blue line from bikes del pueblo and the bike union, joined the ride, which is probably the most organized thing ive ever seen, and then promptly ate some tacos afterward.

saturday was a great day at the market as we guided a new volunteer through some of our most common problems, and it all ended sunday with the vegan mac n cheese bakeoff organized by linda and andres which raised over $100

recent pictures from the farmers market

a busy weekend! in addition to the farmers market on saturday we were also out at the velodrome swap meet and set up right next to the bike valet at earth fair. couldnt have had better weather to do it all in. here are a few pictures from the market over the last few weeks.

another successful build-a-bike-a-thon!

thanks everybody who came out to build bikes this sunday! it was a lot of fun, we got a lot done, and hopefully the next one will be in april. coming up soon is of course, the city heights farmers market every saturday, the south east san diego market every friday (we're mostly still focusing on outreach), and the punk rock mtn bike ride that randy puts on (this sunday!)

dont stop ridin!

350 bike rides against climate change!

put this in your planner: october 9th and 10th bikes del pueblo along with the IRC and some friends are putting together group rides to raise awareness of climate change. the rides are part of the 350 campaign, and will be coinciding with actions taken all over the world. the first ride on october 9th will be at 10am starting at the city heights farmers market and will be a slow paced tour of the neighborhood. the next ride will start around 1pm at ward canyon park on adams ave and will be around 7 or 10 miles, depending on how everybody feels, and will go around the mid-city area and end at toronado in north park. below is an unfinished flier, a finished one will be up shortly

hope to see you all out there!

also this friday is paseo de todo in tijuana and as usual bikes del pueblo is always looking for new members to join in and help share skills and resources within the community
