(As the picture suggests, I also got a library account)In Newcastle there is a bike activist named Dan who loans out bicycles. Dan gets bikes donated for free, fixes them/helps you fix them, and then loans them out to anyone who wants them. I put down $50 bucks and got a bike, a lock, and helmet, when I return the bike in about a year, I get the money back, amazing!
I've been riding around town for a few days now and eventually will attempt a trip to campus. Newcastle isn't as bike friendly as Albuquerque, but I haven't been hit yet so I guess things are going smoothly.
