Bike Licensing is powerful protection against theft...
When you license your bike, the information you provide is entered into the University Police database. If your bike is stolen, we can quickly retrieve the bike's information from the database and enter that information into a statewide law enforcement stolen property database. When law enforcement officers stop a person for any reason while riding a bicycle, the bicycle's serial number is checked against the statewide stolen property database. If the bicycle was reported stolen, it will display as stolen and list the owner's information so the bicycle can be returned to it's rightful owner.
It is important you not only license your bike,
but also be sure to advise law enforcement
if your bike is stolen or missing .
