Bike to School Day 2015

Light the Night 2015

Picture
Our 8th annual C-U Light the Night Bike Light Giveaway event occurred on Wednesday, September 9th, 2015. Over 900 bicyclists visited our two locations on campus (at Wright & Green and Lincoln & Illinois) and bike lights were installed on bikes free of charge. Teams of volunteers including law enforcement also educated bicyclists about laws that require bikes to have lights at night, and provided information on safe riding during both daylight and nighttime hours. Thank you to our volunteers and to those who attended!

On Saturday, May 30th 2015, we hosted a bicycle rodeo at Carle's Playing it Safe annual event. Although rain interrupted the event several times, we were still able to successfully run many children through the bike rodeo. A big thank you to all the volunteers that made this event possible!
