AN Lyceum Event: Col. William Mould Uncovers the Secrets of Bicycle Wheels, Nov 14

The Annandale Campus Lyceum Committee welcomes Col. William Mould to explain the science behind bicycle wheels in simple terms. This in-person event will be held on Thursday, November 14 from 1 p.m. until 2 p.m. at the Annandale Campus (CA-302).

Colonel Mould is a scientist, educator and bicycle wheel builder. Several years ago, he transitioned from a career in the Air Force to become a full-fledged bicycle mechanic.

He began his education with a degree in economics from Pennsylvania State University and an MS in chemistry from Yale University, both of which left him somewhat unprepared for an intensive bike training curriculum. He is also a former civilian pilot and college science professor, often praised for his ability to explain complex topics in an understandable way.

An avid bike rider for many years, Col. Mould commutes year-round and participates in 100+ mile group and solo rides, both in the U.S. and abroad. He is a Trek-certified mechanic and a licensed USA Cycling Race Mechanic. He routinely reads, studies and re-studies technical materials and brochures, and he learns something new every day. In his spare time, he enjoys being with his wife of over 40 years, their three daughters and sons-in-law, and his nine grandchildren.
