Behind the Big Wheel Special Event On Thursday, April 26!:

“Drivers of large vehicles and bicyclists share the road every day but rarely get an opportunity to see the road through each others eyes.
In this special demonstration event, bicyclists & pedestrians will be able to get behind the wheel of a big rig or bus, sit in the driver’s seat, and check blind spots while bikes & pedestrians walk in the street below.
“Share the Road” safety information will be available to all participants.
Thanks in advance for helping us make the University of Minnesota campus a safer place for all!
If you have any questions about the event, please email biking@umn.edu..”
