III. FRIDAY, 10/7: Autumnal Green Fair + Cargo Bike Show

6-9 PM, Downtown Ann Arbor (Specific Location TBA)

The city is doubling its events showcasing local organizations promoting and facilitating various kinds of sustainable living with the second-annual Autumnal Green Fair. This is a companion to the event which takes place in early-June each year (a.k.a. "The Mayor's Green Fair" or "The Ann Arbor Green Fair").

Common Cycle will be tabling and hosting a Mobile Repair Stand for the evening. Also! The city is organizing a cargo bike show and we've been invited to demonstrate (and perhaps somehow glamorize) the functionality of Bikes-at-Work trailers which Common Cycle volunteers use to haul equipment, tools and occasionally bicycles. If you're interested in helping in any one of these three roles, please do the thing in the thing below -
