What is Sanctoral Cycle? Literally, it is the liturgical cycle of feast days in honor of the saints. It is also the name of CMU's student run bike hub.
Sanctoral Cycle is a worker run bike hub and is a space for students and all cyclists to learn to build and maintain their bicycle. The hub can be most easily accessed through furthest north west entrance on the north campus near the CMU Farm.

What is a welders favourite music to listen to?
Heavy metal!
For the past couple weeks the mechanics at Sanctoral having been helping CMU build a bicycle to haul compost around campus. We have been loving the opportunity to learn new skills such as welding and sawing metal frames!

Frostbite.

Have you ever wondered why there is a nun riding a bike as Sanctoral Cycle’s logo? This image is Madonna del Ghisallo, the patron saint of cycling. As her shrine provides a place of rest on a well-used bike route in Italy, so we hope our humble hub can be a place of rest, repair, and rejuvenation for all who come. All are welcome; from the avid cyclist to the brave beginner. Drop by the shop Friday afternoons 1-3 pm for more info!
