So we all pretty much agree that we DON’T like our current logo all that much…

what we need is for you with artistic talent to email to us a proposed NEW logo, and/or cool designs for stickers, T-shirts, etc. As a new community group we have a really slim budget and we need some of you artistic A-Bbikers to share your talent so we have cool designs to wear and put on our blog/site… so… let the artwork/designing/ drawing begin… and email it to ABbikes@gmail.com!

Written by Boston Biker on Jul 14Thats right the film fest is coming to Bean town this year. Get your act together and come help out!

Got this in the mail today from Seth who is not only awesome, but organizing the show here in town this year.

Greetings from the Bicycle Film Festival in Boston!

The Festival is coming up fast and its time to start getting organized. The key to the success of the BFF has always been the strength of its volunteers and this will be especially important in Boston as we get the Film Festival on its feet.

Please join me Monday the 21st, 7pm at The Other Side cafe. We will go over the schedule and events for the BFF and start to assign tasks for volunteers.

Please feel free to pass this invitation along to anyone interested.

This is going to be awesome and I hope you all will be involved!
