For those who wish to eat during the conference please pay attention: Please note that if you haven't registered by today (4/8/2013) but wish to attend it's not a problem, we've got you covered. HOWEVER understand that we may not be capable of feeding those who have not registered yet since we are determining meal portions now based on currently registered participants. For those who have registered: please help us help you by bringing your own dinnerware (aka a plate and a fork). This is integral to the success of you getting fed. We will have a limited supply of dinnerware on site for those who forget but will not have nearly enough for everyone. Thanks so much everyone! We look forward to filling your minds with knowledge and your bellies with delicious grub!

Spokeland is hosting the 4th Annual Bici! Bici! Conference on April 12th - 14th. Bici! Bici! is a California regional event modeled after the (inter)national Bike!Bike! conference. The first CA event was held at the Bike Church in Santa Cruz (2010), followed by the Davis Bike Collective (2011), and Bikerowave in LA (2012). Spokeland is a relatively young organization, and we have a long list of influences to thank for our progress, many of whom will be present at our 2013 event! Spokeland had no physical location when we attended the Davis conference, and what a journey it has been. Over this weekend, we hope to create an environment where future bike projects can gather inspiration, and existing organizations can achieve greater successes!

Conference events will be held in various venues in the area surrounding Spokeland's shop in North Oakland, and there will be plenty of time to socialize, network, and ride bikes! Please RSVP if you plan on attending or hosting visitors so we can plan ahead and everyone can enjoy their time in the East Bay!
