On Saturday, April 21, depart from the Danforth Campus for Bike Ride to Earth Day to Forest Park’s St. Louis Earth Day Festival.
(NOTE: NEW DATE AND TIME) On Thursday, April 26, Francesca DeRanzo, owner and operator of our local Velofix mobile bike shop, will be teaching a Bike Care and Repair Class from 5:15 to 6:15 p.m. in the Church parking lot next to the Hitzeman House on the South 40 of the Danforth Campus.

In the Zone: Stories from WashU Commuters.

A commuter’s top ten

Leslie McCarthy

“Riding the Metrolink is easy, convenient and actually pretty fun,” said McCarthy. “And it truly only adds about 10 minutes to my overall commute.”

A motivating disruption

Professor Richard Axelbaum

“I enjoy the ride, it is good for me, good for the environment and, even better, it takes me about the same amount of time to get to work as it did when I used to drive my car.”

A view from two wheels

Teresa Sarai

“We need only to look at Denmark and the Netherlands to see how everyday cycling has a positive effect on not only reducing our carbon footprint but also improving our health outcomes and overall quality of life.”

Camaraderie on the West Campus Shuttle

Mary Clemens

“With the shade trees along the way, it is really quite an enjoyable walk."
