 Hello, you incredible people. My name is Harrison. I am from Rochester, New York I am a rising senior in the College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences studying civil engineering Outside of the classroom. I am the captain of the steel bridge team I'm a member of the ski and snowboard club and I love to go get sendy at all the local mountains And I'm also a big fan of doing anything I can outside Today, I'll be taking you out a little tour de Burlington. We're gonna go bike around so I'll catch you out there All right, this right here is our trusty steed is a Trek FX3 disc And we're all souped up. We got our little pack on the back with our food We got water bottles in order now. We just got to get dressed. So I guess it's just And we're all ready let's get off All right folks made it to campus. This is the catamount statues say hello to the mascot It took me about two and a half minutes to bike here, which isn't bad at all It's really easy to get to classes even when you live off campus But what we're gonna talk about now Burlington's a wicked bikeable city Cards are super respectful of bicyclists using the road There's a ton of infrastructure around campus and around Burlington and two we've got about a hundred and seven point five Miles of bike lanes around Burlington, which is just absolutely crazy And it makes it really easy to get from point A to point B And we also have a ton of bike infrastructure that I'm gonna show you while I bop around campus a little bit show you around All right, catch you Check out the vista All right folks, I've pulled up to the UVM bike garage. So this is where you can park your bike during the winter It's just one option we have we have a lot of bike racks and stuff that you just saw me hopping around on But this is really really sweet So when it's time to break out the skis you can put your bike away, and then it doesn't get beat up by the snow all winter Let's keep going All right, and that sort of wraps it up around campus. I hope you enjoyed that little Goofy clips and you got to see a little bit more of the campus right now. I'm actually leaving campus I am going past the admissions house, which is where you come for your tour And I'm gonna go downtown so I can grab the banana in or I was talking about See you down there now I can All right. Hi took me about two minutes to get down College Street all the way to the grocery store Super super fast descent big thing big thing Mission Was a success now. I'm headed down to the waterfront It's gonna take me another like 45 seconds to descend down the hill, and then we'll be by the lake See us. All right, folks We made it down to the waterfront behind me is Lake Champlain and the Adirondacks are looking absolutely gorgeous Actually right behind me is some rentable bicycles So you don't even have to have your own bike to enjoy biking around Burlington There's a ton of locations on campus and also off campus around downtown Burlington where you can find these special bike racks And you can just rent one for an hour or you can set up a thing So you have an annual or monthly membership pretty sweet All right, folks. We made it down to the island lined trail. This is a 14-mile shared use path that connects downtown Burlington all the way to Colchester, which is pretty sweet It's used by walkers bikers roller skaters runners One time I saw a guy on a horse So you can do whatever you want here It's really great because you get all this like beachfront property here We've got a little skate park, which is pretty sweet We've also got a little sailing center coming up on my left But it's really amazing along the trail. There's like a ton of stuff I will be passing by some dog parks beach access and you really just can't lose. So As I pass stuff, I'll show you what we got. All right, so let's go Here we've got a beautiful workout station right by the water Wow And you're right. You've got a wonderful dog park Look at that view And here we are at North Beach a very popular summer location Today's a little cold. So there's not too much going on This view just never gets old now. We're going over an absolutely gorgeous Three-span trust bridge Absolutely crazy views While we're winning Whoo All right, folks, we are now in the woods. We're on the trail system of Ethan Allen. It's pretty sweet Well, miraculously I haven't hurt myself between biking and doing all this tomfoolery whole big roots So I am going to try some mountain biking because I feel like I would be remiss if I didn't talk about mountain biking at UVM Because it's a huge Attraction for a lot of people. We've got incredible trail systems up here. We've got one of the best mountains in the world Just a ride or a drive away In East Burke, which is really cool. So we're gonna go do some mountain biking and See if we can't have some fun All right, folks, I just Got a little too sendy on the gravel bike Did a little stop you on the front wheel and almost went over the handlebars So we're gonna cut it short Mountain biking was fun, but uh, let's wait until we get a mountain bike So we are now back. Oh Where I belong I'm beautifully paved road. Oh my goodness. Look at that. Wow Yeah, so catch you when we get to our last stop We're gonna go visit one of my old internships and sort of talk about transportation as a whole All right, I'll see you when I get there So pretty cool This bridge right here pretty awesome. Little did you know you're coming for a bridge tour not actually a UVM tour? that accesses Ethan Allen Parkway right there and We are currently on Another bike path. It's really great to have like multiple bike paths. You can take different routes every week and stuff Keep it interesting All right. I'll see you at the internship All right, here we are at CCR PC And this is where I had my internship last summer this summer. I'm working at stand tech and I am a Transportation intern, so I'm actually helping out on some projects that have to do with bike stuff or walking paths and All the stuff that gets you there, so It's been really cool to work with them. It's really amazing to see all the hard work They're putting into Improving the whole system making it safer and making it more accessible to everyone so everyone can get out and bike ride Just like some notes to say at the end like if you aren't a big biker There's plenty of other ways to get around. I don't mean to wait till the end to do this because you've probably already Stopped watching. All right, and that's a wrap. Thank you for watching. I hope you enjoyed watching this as much as I enjoyed making it It was a blast to go around and just do some Wacky stuff on my bike. I do want to say that I was completely safe the whole time I made sure to size up any segment that I was going to bike with no hands For instance with the banana and such so Make sure that you're safe when you go out and bike always wear your helmet and I hope to see you on campus soon. Adios
