He may not be Lance Armstrong, but he does say he loves sustainability.
Chancellor Brian Levin-Stankevich, along with members of the Clean Commute Initiative, will lead a 21-mile group bicycle ride on Sunday.
The first such bicycle ride, named the Tour de Chancellor, is a fundraiser to improve campus bicycle parking. Suggested donations are $10 for the public and $5 for UW-Eau Claire students.
The non-competitive ride will wind through Eau Claire and Altoona on trails and city streets. The ride begins and ends at Schofield Hall.
Check-in for registered cyclists begins at 1:30 p.m., rain or shine, at Schofield Circle. Register online at http://people.uwec.edu/millerjs/cycling.
Levin-Stankevich will buy all participants a slice of pie at the Altoona Family Restaurant, according to a university press release.
The Clean Commute Initiative urges people to bike, rollerblade, walk, carpool or use public transportation when traveling to and from the university.
