» 1 The concept of bicycle co-ops aren’t exactly a thing here in Thailand, but those interested in finding out more about them can do so at the Will Work For Bikes event, taking place on March 19. Commonly found overseas, bicycle co-ops are essentially non-profit bicycle stores designed to help promote the benefits of bicycle riding. This event is designed to be a crowdfunding event for this store, and will feature live music from various artists like Beer Soranut, DJ Lows, Galaga and John Will Sail. You can start showing your support for this cause at 7pm, at the Whiteline bar near Silom 8.
