A bike can be stolen from just about any place, but simple precautions can
deter would-be bike thieves. Registering and marking your bike can help protect
you and serves as a deterrent. It also helps the police in identifying and returning
a found or stolen bicycle to the owner. 

Most bikes that are stolen are not locked:
Always lock your bike securely, whether you're gone for a few minutes, or a
few hours.

If your bike is at home, keep it in a locked garage, or locked securely to a 
post, tree, or other object. Don't leave it unsecured in the yard or driveway.

What kind of lock should you use? Use a U-lock, securing both wheels and
the frame to a stationary object, like a post, fence, tree, or bike rack.

Complete the bike registration form below and keep a
record of this information in a safe place:
Serial number
Special markings that you have made on the bike to ID it as your bike
Brand name, model, color, speeds, boys or girls, size, are there fenders, 
new or used, special accessories and any other descriptive information.
Date purchased
Value

If your bike is stolen call the police immediately!
Tell them who you are, where and when the bike was stolen, and give a 
description of the bike. Also, let them know if your bike is registered so
that they can get the information out to the officers on the road to increase
the chances of a recovery.

If you sell the bike or dispose of it, call the station so that we can take it out
of our database.

Please complete the registration and submit it to us so that we can
keep your bikes safe this biking season!
