Due to rain, Bike Fest has been rescheduled for Tuesday, October 14th. We hope to see you then!

The Office for Sustainability, Outdoor Connection Center, Associated Student Government are excited to co-host the first annual Bike Fest at the University of Arkansas on October 14, 2014, from 1:00-3:00pm. The event will take place on McIlroy Avenue between the Business Building and Humphreys Residency Hall.

The Bike Fest is an opportunity to learn about cycling on and around the University of Arkansas campus and to register your bicycle with the university. The Bike Fest includes a “slow bike race,” where riders go as slow as possible without touching the ground and the last person to cross the finish line wins! Other activities include an introduction to bike commuting workshop, an introduction to mountain biking workshop, games, informational booths, games, and a chance to win a free bike! Associated Student Government will provide hotdogs while supplies last.

Come get your bike registered, get free food, learn more about biking, and try the slow bike race! If you cannot attend the festivities but would like to register you bicycle, please visit http://parking.uark.edu/531.php.

The Office for Sustainability recently launched a new online Guide to Biking on Campus: bike.uark.edu. The goal is to provide information on bike safety, access, maintenance, policies, trails, campus walk-only zones, and more.
