Hi, my name is Paris and I am enrolled in a summer internship program called BITS. My group is called Bike Temple and there are six interns in the group. The goal for our group is to spread the word about bike ridership on and off campus and try to influence people to leave their cars at home, get on a bike and ride! We plan to do all sorts of things, for example, we will be asking people to complete a survey we created all about bikes. We are making nice progress towards our goal. So far we have taken to the streets and taken count of the nearly 500 total bike racks on campus (by hand no less). We have brainstormed numerous ideas about how to make the assignment much more exiting and interesting, and today we have created this blog- to record all of our actions, thoughts and ideas in a convenient, easy to use format. Today marks the first day of our blogging journey. So here, from Anderson Hall, I bid you farewell and hope you follow us.
