Schedule of On-Campus Events
Wednesday October 1 – Celebration Station |
Join UBCO Sustainable Transportation in partnership with our campus and community partners at our Celebration Station during GoByBike Week this October to enjoy:
UBCO Recreation, UBCO Sustainability, UBCO Workplace Health & Wellbeing and Lime will be in attendance. Find us outside of the lower entrance of the Administration Building on from 8 to 10 am. |
Thursday October 2 – Student Lock Swap |
| UBC Okanagan Students can swap their old or weak bike lock for a free U-Lock! A U-Lock is a stronger and safer way to protect your ride.
You can also connect with campus and community partners to learn about bike security and grab some snacks to fuel your next bike ride. The SUO, Bikeways and Crimestoppers will be in attendance. Limited locks available. Come find us on University Way outside of University Centre from 11:30 am to 2 pm to swap your lock! |
FRIDAY OCTOBER 3 – BIKE MAINTENANCE WORKSHOP |
| Learn all about bike maintenance and repairs during an interactive workshop with McGeeCycle. Will include demonstrations of a tire change and derailer fix, challenges like “how quickly can you fix this chain” and an opportunity to ask your own bike maintenance questions. Pre-registration is requested for this free workshop. Refreshments will be provided.
Workshop will take place in the Arts & Sciences Centre (ASC) Courtyard (or ASC Foyer if raining) from 9 am – 10:30 am. |
