Bike 2 UA Day

Here's a few pictures to sum up Bike 2 UA Day.  The Cycling Club would like to thank Trek Bicycles of Tucson, City of Tucson Transportation Department, and UA Parking & Transportation for putting on such a fun event.   And thanks to Clif Bar for the Clif Bars (and Shot Bloks too!).  

Club members probably lubed 50 squeaky chains, installed 100 Incredibell's (a Bike Fest giveaway), fixed 5 flats, adjusted many brakes, cables, and fed many pounds of food to hungry campus bike users.
