Bid of Becky's Badger-Red Bike!
Chancellor Becky Blank's Badger Red E-Bike

Former Chancellor of the University of Wisconsin–Madison, Rebecca Blank, had a passion for bicycling--finding immense joy with her Badger-red Trek E-bike.

Sadly, she died from pancreatic cancer on February 17, 2023, at the age of 67.

Her husband, Hanns, graciously donated her bike to be sold to raise funds for pancreatic cancer research at UW Health | Carbone Cancer Center.

This 2021 Trek Verve+ 2 Lowstep is an electric hybrid bike that will help you get out and ride more. Your daily cruises, commutes and workouts will all get a boost from the reliable Bosch pedal-assist system. Plus, this e-bike is equipped with parts that put your comfort and safety first, like a road-smoothing suspension seatpost, wide, stable tires and front and rear lights.

This package includes a Trek Level 1 service package.

Bid now to make this bike your own and honor the legacy of Chancellor Blank!

Donated as a gift in memory of Chancellor Emerita Rebecca M. Blank from Hanns and Emily Kuttner.

Value: $1,322.00
