Summer is upon us and that can mean only one thing, its festival season! And festival season is a busy time for our valet bicycle parking service Roll Up. <\/p>

Established in 2011 with funding from the VicHealth MOTION program, Roll Up is a fully outsourced, customisable, rider-oriented bicycle parking service. Requiring no permanent infrastructure, Roll Up fits on the street, on footpaths, in ovals or just about anywhere. We provide infrastructure and staffing to accommodate up to 200 bikes. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

Able to be located in close proximity to or within festivals and events, bicycle valet is a proven factor in encouraging active and sustainable transport. Run by bike riders for bike riders, Roll Up adds green value to any event, enhances the rider experience, rewards sustainable transport choices and promotes health through physical activity and community engagement. <\/p>

Our Roll Up calendar for 2016 is off to a great start. We'll be kicking off the year at the Australia Day Festival<\/a> in the City of Greater Dandenong where locals from over 150 different countries will come together to celebrate everything they have in common. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

St Valentine's Day sees us in St Kilda for the annual St Kilda Festival<\/a> for the fourth year running. In fact you'll be seeing double as this Festival is so big and the Roll Up service so popular we'll be in two locations, so there's no excuse not to ride your bike if you're heading to this popular day out!<\/p>

Meanwhile, Sunday March 20th will see Roll Up at the Darebin Community and Kite Festival at Reservoir's picturesque Edwardes Lake Park from 11-6. <\/span><\/p>

A couple of months ago we started work on a campaign along the St Georges Road shared path to get pedestrians and riders talking to each other about how they share the space. Shared spaces can be tricky and none more so than paths shared by pedestrians and bike riders who are in a hurry to be somewhere! <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

We used the promise of free ice cream from The Rolling Scoops<\/a> to entice both riders and pedestrians<\/span> to stop and have a chat to each other about the way in which they share path space.  <\/span><\/p>

You can take a look at the ideas both riders and pedestrians put forward on the City of Darebin Facebook<\/a> page. These suggestions will be used to develop a shared path etiquette and Darebin are asking you to vote here<\/a> on the ideas put forward. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

The Wheelie Workshop is now being run by the team at Bike n' Blend. Contact 0481 315 956<\/a> or email info@bikenblend.com.au<\/a> for a quote today!<\/p>

At first glance, the Wheelie Workshop was a fairly innocuous form of children's entertainment. We rocked up at events, venues and festivals with a marquee, our trained Bike Doctors, a hot glue gun and a mountain of dinosaurs and other decorative devices so that kids of all ages could spend time decorating their bike, scooters and themselves before going for a spin in a parade! <\/p>

We would often bring some spare bikes (and helmets) of our own, so that everyone could take part whether they had a bike or not. Along the way, we'd give tips to parents on how to safety fit a helmet or adjust a seat, we'd help the kids build confidence to or even given one on one lessons, depending on the event. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

While engaged in some silly fun with our Bike Doctors, kids (and their parents) were actually learning how to do a safety check on their bike and the crucial elements to check before each ride. Our parade was the perfect opportunity to give some tips on technique and handling, the sort of small details that can turn riding from a chore to a spin! <\/p>

There was however, another element to the Wheelie Workshop. As their children were absorbed in deciding whether to glue the blue dinosaur or the red palm tree onto their handlebars, parents would find themselves standing around and musing on their own bike-riding. Maybe they'd fallen into conversation with another parent or one of our Bike Doctors, maybe it was the sight of their own child finding the confidence to spin three times around the parade ground. Whatever it was, the Wheelie Workshop seems to remind people not only of all the times they have enjoyed riding a bike but of the possibility of going on to do so, and of involving their children. <\/p>

In fact, the Wheelie Workshop was the very embodiment of our philosophy around not only getting more people onto their bikes but reminding everyone of just how much fun riding a bike can be!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

We're very proud of our Good Wheel program<\/a>. That's the program we run with our partners Good Cycles<\/a> and organisations such as the City of Melbourne<\/a>, AMES<\/a>, the ASRC<\/a>, Victoria Police<\/a> and The Huddle<\/a>. You can read a little more about it here<\/a> and here<\/a>. <\/p>

Good Wheel has been attracting some attention lately. Azil, one of our graduates from our Spokeswomen program (a version of Good Wheel targeted at female asylum seekers) was recently interviewed by Michael Mackenzie on RN Afternoons. Azil is a great example of how providing a bicycle and the knowledge and confidence to use it can make a real difference to someone's life and the place they are able to make for themselves in the community. You can listen to the interview <\/a>here. <\/p>

The Spokeswomen program is also featured in issue 17 of Treadlie Magazine<\/a>. This issue will be available from October 12th in newsagents around Australia. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

Shared spaces can be tricky and none more so than paths shared by pedestrians and bike riders who are in a hurry to be somewhere! The City of Darebin<\/a> have commissioned The Squeaky Wheel and behaviour change experts Studio Huss<\/a> to develop and deliver a campaign to establish an etiquette for using shared paths in Darebin. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

We will be hosting a series of interventions on the St Georges Road shared path during  November where bike riders and pedestrians will be invited to have a conversation, with each other, around how they share the path space and negotiating behaviour on the path.  The outcomes of these interactions will be shared with the wider community to crowdsource a new etiquette for shared paths across Darebin, which will then be shared both along the path itself and via other channels. <\/p>

So how do you get cyclists and pedestrians, often in a hurry to get to where they're going, to stop and have a chat about the way in which they share path space? We think ice cream might do the trick! We'll have The Rolling Scoops<\/a> on hand with four delicious flavours of their natural artisan gelato from which to choose, as a special treat for those who stop and have a chat and engage with other path users and our staff. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

With four sessions, during peak hour on selected Wednesday evenings and one Saturday afternoon session, we're planning on getting as many riders and pedestrians talking to each other about negotiating path space as possible. In addition to ice cream there will be Travel Smart maps, bells and other goodies to help make everyone's trip easier - and safer!  <\/p>

Our first session is Saturday 7th November 1-4pm on the St Georges Road shared path, just near Northcote High School. This will be followed by three Wednesday afternoon sessions on November 11, 18 and 25 between 5-6:30pm, in the same location.<\/p>

Pop down and say hello, engage with other path users and tell us what you can do to make the St Georges Rd shared path work better for everyone. <\/p>
