Terrance Johnson's Capstone

Posted by Terrance Johnson in Senior Capstone · Rosen-Long · ILP/TFI/CAP on Sunday, May 19, 2019 at 3:31 pm

For my capstone, me and Alexander decided that we wanted to build upon the already existing bike room. The bike room had been a place that BCYC (Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia) stored their bikes for the duration of the spring. Yet the room is so much more than that so we took it into our own hands. By allowing people to visit the room we can both show them how to fix bike related issues and give them a place to relax. Fixing bikes is sometimes a hard thing to do and some places charge insanely high prices, but in the Bike Lab, we won't charge a dime. Plus we'll teach you just nearly everything you need to know about fixing a bike. Alongside learning about bikes we also offer people the chance to be apart of BCYC. BCYC will teach you many bike related skills as well as the chance to meet new people. The Bike Lab will be open during lunch and after school. During my time both being a member of BCYC and creating this capstone I've learned what it's like to plant the seed so that others may make it grow. I had no involvement in the room the previous year when the seniors had put the room together, but I can understand that they were also doing this same thing as I am now.  So as a little treat we decided that our showcase would be a mock sprint. I would be the model for this sprint with a speed of 46 kpm (28.3 mph). We then placed people based on there top speed and ranked them first, second. and third. Those who placed in those sections would receive a treat. Sadly none of the people were able to beat my top speed. Still, this was only to give people a little task of what it's like to be a cyclist.

Alexander Delgado's Capstone

​For my capstone project, me and Terrence decided to build upon a room that was being used as a storage place for bikes. With the main focus of trying to get people into the BCYC (Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia), and people who like biking and skating together, we created the Bike Lab. Our main goal was to create a n environment in which people are able to both relax and take care of any maintenance problems for either bikes or skateboards. In order to give a helping hand to those who want to fix their rides, and those who wish to learn what it takes to take care of your bike/skateboard. During our research, we found out that many people wanted a room dedicated toward fixing their rides since most of the places that do this kind of work charge really high, and people actually wanted to know how to fix stuff for themselves, hence our motivation to teach others who wanted to learn. We also found out that there were some people who wanted to dedicate more time into the BCYC club and a way they could now do it is by being in charge of the Bike Lab room. Located inside the school, it takes advantage of being available during lunch hours where most people are free and able to go into the room if they need something at any time. During this process I learned what it takes to build a club and how much you have to dedicate time towards it in order to make it last for the years to come. In order to present this project for the future classes, me and Terrence decided to create a mock sprint, simulating the exercises that we do normally in the BCYC club. People will sprint in a bike stand for 1 minute and try their best to beat a real bike race competitor (Terrence). The winner will receive a prize in the end and if no one beats him, then we will rank people in first place second place and third place bases.
