Join Us for a Nice Ride Bicycle Tour

Ever see the green Nice Ride bikes around town? Wonder how to get one and where you can go on it? Curious how Nice Ride could be used to supplement your current commute to campus?

Join Augsburg colleagues and our host, Transit for Livable Communities, on July 15 for a post-lunch bicycle tour with Nice Ride Minnesota. Learn the ins and outs of the Nice Ride bikeshare system in a safe and fun environment - we'll give you your very own Nice Ride helmet as a post-ride souvenir, and teach you how to check out and return one of the green bikes. We'll travel the bike routes around Augsburg as we take an approximately 3 mile bike ride through the Seward neighborhood and the University of Minnesota. Meet at the Oren Gateway Center at 12:30 p.m. and return by 2 p.m. Maximum of 10 participants.
