    Associated Project(s): 
    Fleet Replacement Plans

    Morgan, Pete, Shawn, Neil, Sarthak, Stacey, and Quinn met on 8/19/2024 to discuss the current status and next steps for the Fleet Replacement Plan. F&S Transportation & Building Services (TBS) team is working on a fleet audit tool, which is expected to roll out (pilot) by the end of fall 2024 semester. Sarthak, Shawn, and Neil will reach out to Prairie Research Institute (PRI) for another discussion about the Fleet Replacement Plan for their fleet. Following the audit tool's roll out, we will begin reaching out to other units on campus.

    Associated Project(s): 
    Campus Bike Center

    All, I know students are back when bikes start selling without a test ride. You can only lead a horse to water…

    We’ll likely sell out of bikes this week. So, we’ll scramble to get a few more on the sales floor. And of course, always mention our Build-a-Bike program!

    The numbers:

    Visitors: 19
    Sales: $1,178.25
    Bikes (refurb): 4 for $785
    Bikes (B-a-B): 1 for $66
    Memberships: 3 for $90
    Tires/tubes: 10 for $59

    Thanks!

    All, Slow week. Not a lot of visitors, not a lot of bikes sold. Should be able to get a couple more bikes on the sales floor today, as we’re down to 10 or so bikes available.

    I’ll be out the rest of the week after today, but my staff will cover.

    The numbers:

    Visitors: 13
    Sales: $465.50
    Bikes (refurb): 1 for $190
    Bikes (B-a-B): 1 for $50
    Memberships: 3 for $90
    Tires/tubes: 10 for $74

    Thanks!

  17. Weekly Update: Slow week

    Associated Project(s): 
    Campus Bike Center

    All, Slow week, except for the full family that brought in 4 bikes over 2 days so everyone could get riding. One of the kids was extra inquisitive on what bikes parts were and their function. Genuine interest is always appreciated!

    Worked through most of our donations of the last few weeks and now have to parse out the build-a-bikes from the for-sale builds to hopefully make the process easier for my staff.

    The numbers:

    Visitors: 12
    Sales: $424.50

    Bikes (refurb): 1 for $175
    Memberships: 6 for $180
    Tires/tubes: 3 for $20

    Thanks!

  18. Weekly Update

    Associated Project(s): 
    Campus Bike Center

    All, Had a visit from someone who works at the Idea Store in Urbana. We were able to donate an old junky wheel to them for an art project—always happy to repurpose bike parts we can’t use! Even more so to an organization that helps recycle as many things as they do.

    This week we’ll still be working through the donations we’ve accrued in the last few weeks.

    The numbers:

    Visitors: 17
    Sales: $514.25
    Bikes (refurb): 1 for $180
    Membership: 4 for $120
    Tires/tubes: 11 for $88

    Thanks!
