PEDAL / Our Community Bikes
PEDAL stands for Pedal Energy Development ALternatives. It is an umbrella organization for several bicycle related projects in the Vancouver area. Currently the main projects of PEDAL are Our Community Bikes, the PEDAL Bike Depot and After School Bike Program. PEDAL grew out of Our Community Bikes (OCB) which was started in 1993 as a project of BEST (Better Environmentally Sound Transportation). The original idea was to provide a do-it-yourself bike shop and recycling service to commuter cyclist in Vancouver. In the spring of 1999, BEST transferred OCB to Pedal Engery Development ALternatives and a new non-profit society was born.
By recycling and refurbishing bicycles, PEDAL takes bikes out of the waste stream, offers affordable bikes for sale, and encourages cycling as a sustainable, healthy transportation choice.

Make Something Edmonton
What are you making? How can we help? Tell us at www.makesomethingedmonton.ca
Make Something Edmonton is a citizen-led celebration and call to action: to inspire and help you make something… anything… born out of your own talents, obsessions and imagination, to make your city more fun, more attractive, more fascinating, more caring, more profitable, more challenging, more fulfilling. A richer, stranger, stronger Edmonton: the city you already live in and love, only more so.
Making something is easy, and it’s a pure expression of what it means to be an Edmontonian. You can make something:
Small. Launch a get-to-know-your-neighbours gathering or a litter pick-up party on your block.
Beautiful. Plant flowers in that neglected patch you pass by every day. Slap a fresh coat of paint on something or commission a mural for an ugly wall.
Personal. Lend a hand to that person in need. Launch a kindness project. Volunteer. Seek out local food, beer, books, artwork.
Profitable. Start that business you always dreamed of.
Ridiculous. Organize a unicycle rodeo. Paint your house like a candy cane.
Fun. Put on a spontaneous juggling workshop. Organize children’s improv in the park or a seniors dance party. Start the first-ever urban adventure race in the winter.
Big. Start a new festival or an art show, a community event, a concert series. Transform your neighbourhood.
Or something else. You’ll have better ideas than we do.
Document your project. Then go to makesomethingedmonton.ca and show us what you’ve done.
Because we want to celebrate it. And you.
