Member Liz Lichtman’s Community Bike Shop hits the National News!

Member, Liz Lichtman helped start the Rusted Up Beyond All Recognition Bikes (RUBARB) here in New Orleans after the storm and spends many hours, including all the Saturdays she is not doing AmeriCorps Service Projects working at the shop.

In addition, she organized an AmeriCorps Service project in January which allowed our members to help out at the shop. The hard work by dedicated members of RUBARB has paid off with many local kids and community members flocking to the shop whenever it is open. In addition, now the larger biking community will know about their awesome work because the shop is featured in a national bicycling magazine!!

Here's the link to the Bicycling Magazine article that's in the new August issue.
