New Bicycle Recycling Project in Liverpool

A few months ago a new bicycle recyling project, called The Well opened shop in Liverpool at 2 Roscoe Street. Their qualified mechanic Pasha, is restoring second hand bikes for resale and you can drop by everyday between 10-30  and 16.00 to take a look.

As if that is not exciting enough, they are currently collaborating with High Tide to put on an eco-recycle-bike exhibition called 2 Wheels Good, which includes vintage bikes, bike-fix workshops and bike-related art, as well as talks and other events. I dropped by last week and have to say it was balm for the soul! Highly recommended.

2 Wheels Good. 8 – 29 April 2011
