Hello. What do you want?

What do you want? We mean ‘really’ want?

You can make up lists asking the universe for every little thing your heart desires but what is it that you truly want?

This is the one thing that you really, really want. Above all other things. Got it?

If you don’t know what you want then you’re likely to find inspiration here. It’s ok to take a sneaky peak, it’s inspiring. Just imagine, after exploring the site you might see an I WANT that strikes a cord, that sets wheels in motion. This can change the course of your life. Grand claims indeed, but just imagine you discover that one thing that you truly, truly, above all other things, want.

WHY SHOULD YOU DO THIS?
We’re here to help and you never know, we might help you get what you want if we think you want it hard enough.

HELLO. WHAT DO YOU WANT?
Submitting your Want is really simple. Head on over to the ‘I WANT ‘ page and enter your ‘I WANT’ along with an image that best represents it (creativity is life). Also add a short description telling us (and the rest of the world) why you want, what you want. You might just find that you’re not the only person in the world wanting what you want. No matter how strange it is! But then again you might, and this is what will make getting what you want a reality.

LOOKING FOR INSPIRATION?
There’s a few ways to explore other I WANT’s.

1. You’ve seen or heard about an I WANT, use the search feature found to the top right of every page.

2. You want to search by topic or type (wealth, health etc) use the category search found at the bottom of every page.

3. You find an I WANT you like, click on the tags (found at the bottom of the post) to find similar I WANTS.

4. Last, but far from least, look through all of those I WANT’s that won’t fit on the daily updated homepage. These are carefully filed away by hot librarians in the Archives found to the right of every page. Pick your month and view the lot!

Workshop Details

The Nunnery Community Bike Workshop, at 40 Forbes St, Newtown, collects abandoned bikes and parts to create working bikes to put back into the community. This bikes are put together by you, the community, with help from others who come. It is also a place to fix up your bikes with the tools and parts available. Come and learn to fix bikes, show us how to fix bikes, fix your bike or a friend’s, or just come and have some tea and coffee. Everyone is welcome!

To see the latest happenings at the workshop, go to our Discussions and Events page.

A map is available at the Bikely website. Come around to the backyard where the co-op is being held.

We’re there every Monday evening. Opening times vary but we are usually open by 5pm. If you think you can open up bike club for us one Monday a month, please get in touch. We are usually closed by 9:30pm. Bike Club is outdoors, so keep this in mind if it looks like rain. If it’s raining, feel free to call us to see if we’re there. Same goes with long weekends.

Roster of openers and closers
Dave 9660 5660 opening and closing 1st monday each month
James 0422 684 236 opening and closing last monday each month
JP 0401 447 675 Opening every other monday
Jodie 0414596616 Closing every 3rd monday of each month
Maurice 0433 622 640 Closing every other monday

Tools, oil, WD40 and small donations are always welcome, but most of all, we’d like your company while fixing bikes and help keeping the workshop going. The first time you come please ask for detailed tour of how the place works and where stuff goes. After that we ask you spend 20 min maintaining the space every time you come. This labor share is what keeps bike club going. We gratefully take donated bikes and parts that are not going to be used, although some times we have too many. Give us a call and we’ll let you know. To donate a bike outside of Nunnery hours, just give us a call and we’ll tell you the combination to the bike lock on a pole next to the house and you can drop it off at any time.

We do not sell second hand bikes but we can help you find people that do, so feel free to ask. The main reasons we don’t are that we would rather have your help than your money and having some people as customers and some as bike sellers detracts from the community bike workshop.
