The UNK Blue Gold Brigade student alumni organization hosted its annual Bike Bowl Saturday at the Nebraska Safety Center.
In its 36th year, the Bike Bowl included teams consisting of six people – four racers and two pit crew – that made their way around a 25-mile course.
The Alumni/Community Division winner was Phi Delt Retro, which included team members: James Williams, Philip Morgan, Derek McClure and Joe Cooper.
The Student Division winner was Alpha Omicron Pi, which included team members: AllisonVanskiver, Allie McCann, Victoria Heineman and Molly Morrison.
Determined by a fan vote, McCann was named Peddlin’ Petunia and Thomas Tye II was named Peddlin’ Pete.
The first Bike Bowl was hosted at Kearney State College in 1967. It ran for 34 years until the last ride in 2000. Following the 13-year absence, UNK brought the event back last year.
