Bicycle Registration

We strongly encourage you to register your bicycle. Registering your bicycle gives you the following advantages:

  • We can easily contact you if your bike is stolen and recovered.
  • Deters potential thieves.
  • Your bike permit decal is good for the lifetime of the bicycle.
  • Helps us to better plan NCSU bicycle facilities.

Register your bike free online. Campus Police can also engrave your driver's license on your bike (no charge).

Theft Prevention

Bicycles should always be locked when not in use or under close watch of the owner. We recommend a sturdy U-lock, which can be purchased at the campus bookstore. When securing your bike with the U-lock, be sure to lock the front wheel and the frame of the bike to the bike rack. See the Campus Police website for details.

To avoid having bicycle parts such as seats and wheels stolen, it is recommended that quick release levers be changed out for more permanent bolts in order to deter theft.

If your bicycle is stolen, report it immediately to the Campus Police: 515-3000.
