|
|
Folks have started to brainstorm names for the shop and would love to have other people put some ideas on the table.
Here is a general list so far.
Lexrides ReCyclery
NoLi Bikes
Broke Spoke ReCyclery
The Hub ReCyclery
The Rusty Wheel ReCyclery
Spoke-n-Hub ReCyclery
ReCyclery does not have to be a part of the name. Depending on how the shop/group is organized it could also be a collective, co-op, etc. |

No love for Bikewesome?
Ok, ok, I like NoLi Bikes because I'm all about the hip nicknames for neighborhoods. |

Please no alternating caps or hip, abbreviated neighborhood names (like TriBeCa). It MaKeS iT LoOk LiKe OuR nAmE, I don't have the patience for this, like our name was conceived by a thirteen year old girl on AIM instant messenger.
how about something simple and descriptive

Abbreviated neighborhood names are awesome.
You have a problem with 13 year old girls? |

I like Kyle's style. Simple. Direct. No-nonsense. Bike Cooperative sounds better than Recyclery, or Community Bike Shop
But I also really like "Simple Machines Bike Cooperative", or something like that _________________ ------------[] O |

What about "Everybody's Bike Cooperative"? I know that's ripping off an old shop but it sure sounds inviting. |
