Both Referenda Passed

E-mail Print PDF

Thank you everyone who Supported Bikechain in our UTSU and GSU Levy campaigns!

This additional funding will certainly help us to continue to deliver free services year round 6 days a week, though will not make up for the cuts to the Work-Study Program. 

The results of the referenda are unofficial until ratified, but the votes were largely in favour of Bikechain.

UTSU $0.25 increase for Bikeshare program with Cost of Living Adjustment - 70% Yes

GSU Cost of Living Adjustment - 92% Yes

Learn to Cycle

E-mail Print PDF

Bikechain is holding a 'How To Cycle Seminar' for UTERN's Environment week.

Thursday March 21 3:00-5:00

Our experienced trainer will focus on how to fine tune balance and safety. Fundamental safety skills involving properly fitting your helmet, checking over your bike, and regulations involving lights and bells will be start off the seminar. Participants will then be able to go on a test ride on Bikechain approved bicycles on a closed course. Basic balance skills will be covered with an emphasis on road safety and appropriate braking. Road signals and riding one meter from the curb will finish off the course. Those who are ready to practice road skills on their bikes will do so, while others will do the final exercises on foot and will be encouraged to practice more on their own time with friends in local parks.

RSVP via email by Wednesday if you wish to attend.
