The project “Tour de Trst – community bike workshop. Cargo bike as a common good!”, submitted jointly with Mittelab APS, has won first prize at Taca*Banda, the grant through which Adesso Trieste supports grassroots projects across the former Province of Trieste. We will receive a contribution of 850 euro to make it happen.
With Tour de Trst we will take the bike workshop on the road around Trieste and Sgonico, with repair sessions open to everyone and talks on sustainable mobility, liveable urban spaces, the right to repair, reuse and planned obsolescence. At the heart of the project is a workshop in which we will self-build a cargo bike, which will remain available to the neighbourhood and to community initiatives.
Thanks to Mittelab for sharing this journey with us, and to the scientific committee and the members of Adesso Trieste who voted for the project. We will soon announce the dates of the first stops: stay tuned and come and get your hands dirty with us!
