“John “Jay” Stewart has spent the last couple of months creating the ultimate FIU bike. It was a labor of love for Stewart, who works in Campus Services at Modesto A. Maidique Campus. He says he wanted to give the university, where he’s worked for more than 20 years, a token of his appreciation.”

This should be fun, last year’s race was cool. My highlights included riding through a trailer park after a missed turn and throwing my bike over a wall in someone’s back yard while some dude yelled at me to get off his property. Fun times, until I got a flat and walked back to the finish.
