deeply feminist, environmentalist, anti-homophobic/transphobic, anti-ableist and anti-racist, the vb pedalgogy is a safe space for bicycle repair and education situated on treaty 1 territory. while it is modeled after community bicycle shops such as the bike dump (http://bike-dump.ca/) which aim to remove financial and knowledge barriers to cycling, the pedalgogy's location in a high socioeconomic
status (SES) resort community shifts its focus primarily to radical and sustainable thought and action. as it is fundamentally anarcho-socialist, the vb pedalgogy takes to heart the adage "from each according to their ability to each according to their need". while this means freely offering support to communities most harshly impacted by the poverty that capitalism generates during the week, those at victoria beach who can afford to are requested to compensate the pedalgogy volunteers for their bike support according to their ability to do so (in a way that reflects their SES). for some this may mean paying well above market value for services. thank you and see you along the avenues :)
