So we begin!!!!

Greetings bambooers,
This is a first posting and we have yet to have a meeting, but in time I am sure we can get together.
Here is a list of sites I suggest you peruse for your viewing pleasure.
Instructables on a Bamboo Bike construction
Calfee's design- one of the first to do it- real beautiful... check out the price!!!
Bike CAD program- for designing your bike! Free JAVA program
Thread on a bamboo forum

Check out some designs - BME

Do a google search too- if you look at some images there are some great ideas!


This is to bring creative/skilled/passionate people together here in Juneau. If you are all thumbs, or any combination of appendages that you think will stop you, COME AND JOIN US!!! ALL skill levels are welcome and this is a project that you can do... we will all help each other.

I have begun to pull together a list of supplies and will be putting in orders. So far, it looks like I will have enough for 5 bike frames. We will have the ability to do either hemp fibers or carbon fiber! We will need some donor bikes. If you know of anyone that has a donor bike, let us know!
