Template:305inprogress Background
The Bike Rodeo is an event for kids teaching basic bicycle safety, in Humboldt County.
Opportunity Definition
To illustrate the uses of pedal power for this event, Engineering 305 students from HSU will design and build a bike power blender. This will be accomplished by modifying a bicycle so that the turning of the crank provides enough power to a blender to make smoothies, salad dressings and other blended foods. Kids attending the Bike Rodeo will be able to make their own smoothies by pedaling the Bike Blender.
