The RamBikes Stand, VCU’s new bike lounge, provides resources and collaborative environment for cyclists of all kinds, as well as those looking to get started.
One of the pinnacles of VCU’s RamBikes program is its staff of bike ambassadors. Bike ambassadors are the face of cycling at VCU, being part instructor, part mechanic, part advocate, and all-around enthusiast. They will be leading safety and maintenance clinics for the VCU community; maintaining RamBikes program and loan bikes, networking students with the myriad cycling groups, events, and activities at VCU and in Richmond, and sharing their advice and experience.
The lounge was a logical next step for VCU, a Bicycle Friendly University.
Oh? Go on VCU! We should tackle bike parking on campus next. Maybe we can look into a comprehensive and convenient solution that started as a student project!
