Welcome.
My daughter goes to OU. Go Bobcats!

Take some time, and look around here for ideas. You are gonna need some power or gears on those hills around town.

Not sure the campus police are going to like the idea either....just be forwarned before you spend any money.

Campus cops are 10X more likely to pull you over than your garden variety regular cop. I take my daughter to college and they really are gun-ho over here in new york.
