As many of you may or may not know, next week is the vote for the $1.25 fee increase. To get people voting, we are doing a group ride through campus on Tuesday. This is in no way a militant biking event, it is simply a group ride to let people know that voting yes for Aggie Blue Bikes is imperative. Without this vote, Blue Bikes will be forced to close their doors in a year.
So about the group ride.....
Meet at Aggie Blue Bikes at 10 am Tuesday morning, we will ride at 10:15-10:20ish. The ride will go for roughly 20 minutes through campus, hitting main drags through campus, and end up in front of the fountain by the TSC. We will set up shop their and hang out, passing out fliers, do bike tricks, and talking to people about the fee.
We are encouraging everyone to rides to wear a blue shirt (aggie blue!) and a helmet. Bring all your friends, it doesn't matter what kind of bike you have, EVERYONE is welcome.
Please come out and support our cause. The shop will be open all day (as usual) so come lube your chain, adjust your derailleurs or talk bikes with us. We appreciate all of your help. If you would like to support us more via facebook, feel free to use our profile picture as your own next week, and change your status. :) Thanks again everyone!
