Bicycle

Bicycles are a common feature of many resilient communities and resilient organizations. DIY or Mutual Aid organizations may repair bikes in some areas, and bike share programs such as Nice Ride in Minneapolis lower barriers for use.

Expanding adoption of bikes and accommodations for bikes like bike lanes are one of the best ways to soften the transition to living with peak oil.

One popular feature for any Resilient Places, Hackerspaces or Cooperatives is a bench with tools for bicycle repair and maintenance (for example at Seward Co-op in Minneapolis).

There are many advocacy groups and activist organizations related to bikes, including working for new policies.
