download the pdf file of the velo - city poster we presented on behalf of the bike forum '07

we came back from monaco wih one more luggage each, made of documents and useful informations.
we participated for the second time to this international conference in wich many organizatons and administrators participate. They all take care of promoting the bike, some of them are not very effective, and some of them have a complete different approach than ours, of course. some of the declinations of bicycle (bike parkings, cycle lanes, regulations,) are actually in some cases not quite positive. (for ex. dublin has made cycle paths, and in result, more cyclsts have been killed).

velo city for us has been our wish to show and demonstrate, to those who treat bike as "another product to sell", the world of the bike workshops, how they work, how they think and behave, and the vision they share of city spaces, of human relationship inside the agora (public place). we also made so many friends by simply asking questions, smiling, offering a ride on a recycled bike, talking in front of a beer with them, more humanly than just participating in a reunion of three hours. we met so many people that share our visions,  my friends! from the people of grenoble who run a great bike workshop, to the social  workers of holland, who give bikes to lower class people to make them self sufficient. they were told about the our forum in may, and were interested in joining. i think we could really start something big if we believe in our voice and plurality.
the critical way of the bicycle is something very powerful, and this net of people will only grow with time and a little dedication.

we also met people who had nothing in common with us, confronted them on big issues (oil dependance, growth, polution, recycling), and they understood our necessity to be seen and heard in our communities, in our social centers, in our streets and associations.  especially those trapped in a south european pattern of political shit.
we talked about the necessity we have to kick cars out of town as much a s possible, we talked about taking the street back, with pedestrians and cyclists together, and to give a propositive answer to the raging wars for oil. we also pointed out that our administrators need to be controlled very strictly by the people, because they have for too long kept power only for themselves and their friends... participation must become a european imperative, not re-election of the same people, over and over. many applauses on this question we raised. 

we gave to everyone the paper wrote by danielo and rossella, on the critique of car as privation of space, and streets, once public. in this aspect we collected a lot of consensus, but only on a personal level. institutions and industrials still are reluctant to show some improvement in their thinking. in north europe, things are getting always better, of course, and cars can only pass in certain streets, almost car lanes, compared to the incredible amount of pedestrian/cycling streets and squares.
they run projects with children at school in bike, cycle streets that take back the old car streets, etc... it is a problem instead in the south of europe (spain, portugal, italy, france), and the gap between us and northern europe is increasing every day more. south is basically still growing with car highways, more cars, more power to car industry, few and weak political projects to reduce the use of car, or to improve bicycle projects. some of these are actually done in terrbile ways, resulting in a angry public opinion.

confronting ourselves with people thinking in a different way has given us clearer ideas: we know there are many possible strategies we can build in order to create new and constructive projects, all together! we are thinking about asking a reduction in bicycle overproduction, start a reflexion about the possible re-use of unused or unsold bikes

VERSIONE ITALIANA
Nel maggio 2007 è stato organizzato a Roma il primo forum di caratura internazionale che riuniva tutte le ciclofficine della galassia, quest’incontro serviva a scambiare idee, fare conoscenza e a promuovere l’uso dei trasporti a inquinamento zero e tutte le alternative a essi associate : anti-consumismo, riciclaggio, semplicità volontaria sono alcuni esempi.
Questo forum, unico nel suo genere a causa del tema ancora inesplorato, la bici « alternativa », rappresenta una grande occasione per creare delle connessioni tra i cicloattivisti venuti dai quattro angoli del continente (Spagna, Gran Bretagna, Italia, Francia, Belgio).
Durante i dibattiti i delegati del Rome Bike Forum 2007 si sono trovati d’accordo sul fatto che il Bike forum possa e debba evolversi trasformandosi in un appuntamento itinerante, con tra gli altri obiettivi di far conoscere come a Roma i componenti dell’organizzazione ed aiutarli a dare un’impulsione al loro movimento locale.

VERCION ESPANOLA

En mayo del 2007 los colectivos ciclistas romanos organizaron por vez primera en Roma un forum de magnitud internacional reuniendo todos los partidarios de la bici de todas las galaxias, llenos de ambiciones y de sueños.
Este forum, único en su genero por su tema, la bici alternativa, represento una gran ocasión para crear conexiones entre ciclo-activistas pertenecientes a horizontes diversos (España, Bélgica, Italia, Gran Bretaña).
Durante los días de debates, los delegados del Rome Bike Forum 2007 acordaron en el hecho de que el Bike Forum podría, para evolucionar, convertirse en una cita itinerante que incluiría a sus objetivos la ambición de hacer conocer la cuidad y el comité organizador que acoge el encuentro anual.
Los velorucionarios tolosanos nos unimos, desarrollamos desde el inicio nuestra autonomía y nuestra independencia financiera intentando al máximo de otorgar la palabra y la iniciativa a los ciclistas: talleres de reparación y de recuperación dentro de locales abandonados, más tarde regularizados, así como en los mercados de la cuidad.
La delegación tolosana que participo en el Bike Forum 2007 y la vida comunitaria, que concierne tanto los momentos de debates como los otros momentos recreativos, fueron creadores de lazos y contactos que dieron nacimiento a una red intergaláctica de ciclistas urbanos (europeos por el momento).
