Alaska Renewable Energy Fair

We had a great time at the Alaska Renewable Energy Fair. We would like to thank all of you who braved the weather to come by and visit us. We also would like to thank our volunteers for making the BCA booth a success. We had several commuter bikes to show off to the public including a fat tire bike, a power assist bike, and 2 bikes that had all the works for winter commuting.

Another Great Day for Commuting!
On August 1st, BCA volunteers were again out on the trails handing out pastries, coffee and stickers to morning commuters.
Despite a gray and cold July, August 1st was sunny and glorious and BCA and all the bicycle commuters were able to enjoy a great day to ride to work.
With the sun shining, there were a lot of commuters out. We had a great time getting to know our fellow commuters.
BCA will be out on September 2nd, so please stop by and say hello, grab a cup of joe or OJ, enjoy a pastry, meet your fellow commuters and pat
yourself on the back for riding your bike to work or school. See our events page for details regarding station locations.
BCA would like to thank Snow City Cafe for donating treats for our morning event. Make sure to thank them next time your there.
