Become a bike mentor
A mentor will work individually with each mentee to help achieve the mentee's biking goals – whether that's learning how to bike commute, getting comfortable biking to the grocery store, or figuring out how to bike to the nearest trail.
The mentors are experts in things like planning a stress-free route, dealing with car traffic, and showing up to the office looking neat after a bike commute. Mentors will also ride with the mentees, to help mentees become more comfortable and confident.
If you're an experienced rider who lives in Bloomington, please consider becoming a bike mentor. For additional information contact commute@indiana.edu.
