Free bike tools

[Sam45daw]

Hello fellow cyclists...

I am currently working on a university project based around getting towns and cites to provide free bike tools for everyone to use. I feel that free bike tools are essential for getting everyone out of cars and onto two wheels.

I was wondering if you could please fill out this survey to aid my research an proposal to Bristol Council

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Q5VKTQM

It only takes a minute as it all Yes/No answers..

THANK YOU

Is this a serious proposal?

Done. You may need to rethink your idea after you get the results i am betting.

I have done the survey but think that any free bike tools, unless seriously chained up would get nicked before the end of the first day.

Done, I echo the comments above but I assume you mean the use of a workshop and tools will be provided.

Sam just out of interest how many other cyclists did you ask in order to form the opinion you have about providing bike tools is essential for getting people out of cars?
I only ask because if you were to have posed the question on here as to what did we believe would get people out of their cars and onto bikes i don't think free tools would have ever arisen. Don't forget the majority of us are car drivers too.Might be an idea to start another thread with that question to see if your belief is correct before you pin your colours to the mast in your project. It would bolster your research and may earn you more points too.

Good luck with it though

Done, but I don't think my response will aid your cause

Ooh, great, I haven't seen that.

great facility that, but I can't see it having much impact on cycling numbers - most people taking up cycling wouldn't have the knowledge to use the tools -a surprisingly large number of keen cyclists struggle to mend a puncture

What's with the head shake?
You don't think it's a good idea?
