Fix-it is a self-sustaining station that includes all the tools necessary to perform basic repairs and maintenance for bicycles to all students, staff and faculty on campus. With the help of the Lancer Green Fund, the station is projected to be installed during Spring Bike Week.
This project will directly benefit the environment and sustainability efforts on campus by offsetting a percentage of our carbon footprint by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and the number of automobiles on campus. It will assist in inspiring more of the campus community to choose cycling as a healthy, environmentally friendly, inexpensive, and fun method of commuting to and from school/work.
By allowing cyclists to perform simple repairs, they will cycle more efficiently and occasionally will be able to ‘ride home’ with a repaired bike instead of having to use another transportation means, should their bike become broken.
