Bike bike
Students who live near the school can consider buying a bike to ride. It will be the best means of transportation for you to travel every day, which is convenient and environmentally friendly, and can also exercise. It can be said that it is the best of both worlds. Of course, even if you live far from school, you can still have the opportunity to ride a bike. There are bicycle racks in front of buses in ann arbor, which brings great convenience to cyclists. If you are tired of riding, you can stop at the nearest bus stop, take your bike to take the bus, and then get off and continue riding to your destination. So what? Bike+bus? It is also a good travel choice. The University of Michigan is very supportive and advocates that students can travel by bike. The school has 8,500 bicycle racks for everyone to keep their bicycles. Remember to put the card on and lock it in case it is stolen. At the same time, the school also established a bicycle alliance, which was approved by the American Bicycle Alliance in March 20 12, and was called a bicycle-friendly university. If you are a cycling enthusiast, you can also consult the school cycling association and join it.
