Making and fixing bikes
Bike Club/Cycle ReCycle aka The Nunnery
Bike Club collects abandoned bikes and parts to create working bikes for the community. Rock along and learn how to fix bikes, teach others how to fix bikes, fix your bike or a friend’s, or just join them for a cuppa and a chat. Everyone is welcome!
Social networking

A site for cyclists in Sydney to talk, share hints and tips and generally stay informed.
