Bike Parking
Outdoor Bike Racks
There are hundreds of bike racks throughout our bike-friendly campuses. Please do NOT bring your bike into buildings or lock it to trees, signs, handrails, or other non-bike rack furnishings. Your bike will be removed and impounded as a result.
Always lock your bike carefully and securely! As with all college campuses, bike theft can be a problem. You can dramatically increase the security of your bike by following these simple steps:
- Always use a U-lock or heavy-gauge chain (cable locks are not enough!)
- Make sure to lock your bike through a portion of its frame
- Secure quick-release wheels with your lock or an added cable
- Remove all detachable accessories including lights, bags, etc.

FREESecured bike parking (bike cages) is available at both campuses. One at Lansdowne and two at Interurban campus behind Huber Hall and at the CHW building, on a first-come, first-served basis.

Fix-it Stations, showers and lockers
Bike Fix-it Stations
The bike fix-it stations on each campus make it easy for anyone to keep rolling with a basic repair stand, durable air pump, and basic tools. A hanger arm allows for suspending your bicycle from the saddle so your wheels and pedals can spin freely while making adjustments.
Ƶ provides a self-serve bicycle fix-it station at central locations at both Interurban (near the basketball court) and Lansdowne (near the covered bike parking area). The stands have all the tools you need to perform basic repairs and maintenance.
Also, for when you need a little extra assistance, use your smartphone to scan the Quick Read (QR) code on the front of each fix-it stand. A database of repairs pops up with detailed instructions for your fix, so you can get back on the road quickly.
