Helpful tips for bicycle ridersAs spring turns to summer, more students are encouraged to get outdoors and many will get on their bike. To keep bicycles secure, students are encouraged to follow these tips from the Department of Public Safety: • Always secure your bicycle with effective locking devices. High-security locks are available for $25 from the Parking Services office. • The City of Milwaukee requires that all bicycles are licensed. Free licensing decals can be obtained from the Parking Services office. Non-licensed bicycles are subject to a $63 fine. • Secure bicycles to fixed objects, such as permanent bicycle racks that are cemented or anchored into the ground. Avoid securing bicycles to trees or other objects that can be removed or broken. On campus, bicycle parking is allowed in designated areas only. • Consider engraving a personal identification number or message on your bicycle. Electric engravers can be borrowed from Public Safety. Those in need of long-term bicycle storage are encouraged to utilize one of the two secured bike corrals, located in both parking structures on campus. Bicycles must be registered with Parking Services prior to gaining access into the bike corrals, which are equipped with a card access entry system and monitored by the university's video surveillance system. Once inside the corral, all bicycles must be secured using a high-security lock. For more information, contact Public Safety at (414) 288-6800.
