Posted by freeridemontpelier on September 14, 2007

MDCA and FreeRide are collecting used bicycles and bike parts on Saturday,
Sept. 22 from 10am to 1pm. Donations can be dropped off at FreeRide which
is located at 89 Barre St. (the small white building near Hubbard St, next to Fisher Auto Parts). The entrance is in the back. FreeRide will refurbish bikes and bike parts in
good condition into usable transportation. All other donations will be
turned into public art as part of the MDCA SculptCycle project.
SculptCycles are unique sculptures utilizing recycled bicycle parts which
will be on display in downtown Montpelier during Summer/Fall 2008. To

Because Sometimes Two is Too Many

Posted by freeridemontpelier on July 3, 2007

From Bill Merrylees and the Montpelier Unicycle Club:

Our weekly unicycling meets right down the street in the parking lot of the senior center. In the winter we meet on sundays for indoor riding at the rec dept gym there on Barre Street, so maybe we can set up something for any of your members who’d like to try it out. Our website is www.vtunicycle.com .
