Hello Folks and Welcome,
I was kind of hoping someone else would take the reins and start up a Chibike community here, but that didn’t happen and today is the start of the blackout so I’m trying to keep busy.
r/ChiBike had a great community and some really good content and I would love to see some of that migrate over here to midwest.social. That wasn’t going to happen if there wasn’t a dedicated space to land, so here we are, welcome.
Feel free to join the party and stretch out your legs, share some bike shots, promote a ride your hosting/joining, complain about drivers, and make some friends!
(If you’re interested in modding let me know, I could probably use another set of eyes/hands if this really gets going)
hi! thank you so much for setting this up! admittedly being very new to the fediverse it took a long time to find this space and I’m pleased it exists. quiet for now but hopefully not for long!
I hope we can get some of the original mods from r/chibike on here! if not I am willing to contribute. and also maybe getting a new Bike Tag: Lemmy Edition set up if that’s interesting. or maybe putting the feelers out to other Reddit refugees. at any rate, happy to be here and get stuff rollin’ 🚲🚲🚲
Hello and welcome!
I’ve been thinking about posting in the sub to see if we can get any converts but I just haven’t had the bandwidth to do it. If you wanted to try, it would definitely be appreciated!
I never really looked into bike tag but I knew it was something that was really picking up steam in the sub as of late, it would be interesting to see if we could get something similar going here.
🚲
already done! hope to see some folks trickling in here soon, especially after tomorrow when 3rd-party Reddit apps are kaput. in the meantime I’ll be crossposting some events when relevant.
I’m out of town for a wedding/unintentional NASCAR & smoke avoidance, when I’m back next week I can start it up. basic idea for bike tag is take a photo of your bike in a mystery location. if you get it, post your bike in the mystery location, take another photo in a new location, and link to the previous post. after a week if nobody gets it, drop a heavy hint.
the Sarah Likes Bikes tracker is for bike tag! not sure how it integrates with Lemmy, we’ll just have to figure it out.
