ASNMU bike share program running

ASNMU’s bike share program has returned to the library (with improvements) after a two year break.

There are currently 10 bikes available for students to check out at the library upon presenting their ID to a staff member. The bikes are free to check out and can be used for up to three days. The program will run through the rest of the summer until the first snow of fall semester.

“We think it is an excellent program that allows students to help other students by providing bikes for getting around campus or to just cruise around town,” teaching assistant Chris Kovala said. “It has been a lot of work by many volunteers and administrators, but it’s really great to see it come together.”

Last year the bike share program didn’t make it back, but over the course of the year Kovala and fellow ASNMU members have been working to make it happen again this year.
