Ride your bike. Hammer. Repeat.
No, this isn’t a crude way to maintain your bicycle. It will be the routine for bicycle riders in seven “Bike & Build” cross-country tours this summer.
Participants in the Bike and Build Program collect donations before setting out and ride in groups of about 30. The routes cross 42 states. On days that they’re not pedaling an average of 75 miles, they’re building affordable housing.
