CBMF is brought to you by BEC.

We are hoping and wanting blue skies and sunshine on Saturday. Although if it does rain we are still going to meet up at North Rim Parking Lot at 11am. We have easy ups and are prepared to stake out some of the day. If it starts dumping then we are moving ourselves to Cafe Culture for the rest of the day.

I am sure we will have fabulous weather, however. Please wish a sunny day in the high 80′s with sparse clouds. Thanks everyone! See you there!

Golden Goose and Left Hand Lady. Golden Geese collect tips for the band after each performamce.

Volunteer at this years CBMF!

If you would like to be one of our many volunteers on June 4th, 2011, please e-mail Sammey @ magicpedalproductions@gmail.com.

We will then get back to you with a volunteer spreadsheet with all the positions and times that are available the day of the festival. Also, attached to the e-mail will be a volunteer e-mail with the dates of the mandatory volunteer meeting.

We need help with all kinds of activities through out the day. Such as: Golden Goose, Pedal Powered Helpers, Corkers and safety Group.

When you volunteer for the CBMF you receive: a CBMF t-shirt, food during your shift and drinks at the last venue.

It takes a whole community for a festival like this to be so successful.

Chico Bicycle Music festival June 5th, 2010

We are changing the first venue to:

North Rim Parking Lot on 2nd and Wall st.

Come, listen to music and pedal power our P.A.

Chico Pedal Power

Let me explain what you are looking at. Here we have an 8 foot steal frame with a slightly smaller 2in steal bar in the middle. Four bicycles will be able to hook there back tire onto the trainers (8 arms sitting upward). With the Back tires resting on the bar, when you pedal the bar moves. The bar is then attached with a chain to a 500 watt motor. The motor is then plugged into an inverter where the pedal energy is changed into real electricity. This will be our system for the Chico Bicycle Music Festival this year and for more to come. Also, we hope to lend out the system to schools, non-profits and even movie in the park fans for anything and everything that needs power. Thanks again to all who came to the benefit.

Remember Chico Bicycle Music Festival June 5th, 2010!
