So I've looked around and there is a bike club and apparently fall intramural mountain biking. As a fan of biking (especially mountain biking) more so than the track I've done in high school, this is all very exciting for me because it doesn't seem like most other schools have one of these.
If I get my appointment this year and decide to go, of definitely be interested in the biking teams there, which leads me to my question about how the logistics of all that is managed. I won't be able to bring my bike to BCT, obviously, but is it as simple as having my parents send it over afterwards? Are there squadron rules about it? Do I just have to buy a used bike or something in Colorado Springs?
I know there are bike racks at the dorms, and I think the cycling team has their own room to maintain them and keep them and stuff (unless I'm confusing that with another school.)
Also, what else are bikes used for? The campus is walkable, and there's no way to bike into town since it's on the highway.
So what would be my procedure for this?
