My son is a freshman at Univ of MD (College Park)... He's been more into 
cars than bikes, but I'm trying to convince him this is a great opportunity 
to "turn his life around"... :)
I'd be very interested to see how many students turn out for this event, or 
whether it's a mostly an older crowd... I also wonder whether the Rivendell 
culture is perceived by the price of the bike (which may not be within 
financial reach of the average college student, or their parents paying for 
college), or whether people appreciate (and embrace) the basic underlying 
principles and attitudes towards bicycling...
