Come see Dero at SCUP-44

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

It’s time for one of our favorite conferences of the year, SCUP (Society for College & University Planning). For this year’s conference, Dero will be heading out to an incredible, bicycle friendly community- Portland, OR. We are excited to experience the culture of the town and find out the latest in green campus planning. Look for our booth showcasing some of our latest racks, bike room plans, BIXI bike share, and the Dero ZAP commuter verification system. Do not miss the break-out session with Rolf Scholtz, Dero president, Steve Sanders, University of Minnesota, and Ian Stude, Portland State University on Integrating Bicycle Transportation Into Your Campus.

Tour de Fat 2009

If this weekend’s Bicycle Film festival isn’t enough for you, come out for the Tour de Fat is coming to Minneapolis on July 18th at Parade Field by the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. If you like costumes, music, theatrics, prizes- and of course- bikes and beer- The New Belgium Brewery’s Tour de Fat (TDF) is for you. The best part of this fantastic event is that all proceeds benefit local bike advocacy efforts. This year’s partners/ beneficiaries include The Bicycle Alliance of Minnesota, The Midtown Greenway Coalition, and MORC/MOCA. So, put on your Elvis or MJ costume, get some streamers and construction paper for your ride, and head to the TDF!
