Donate Your Bike!

Don’t abandon your bike on campus at the end of the semester. If you no longer need your bicycle, consider donating it to the Campus Bike Center (51 E. Gregory Drive, Champaign) or the Bike Project of Urbana-Champaign (202 S. Broadway Avenue, room 24). No appointment is required. Donations are tax-deductible. Bicycles will be refurbished or recycled, reusing as much of the bike as possible.

All unattended bicycles on campus will be impounded after the on-bike sticker tagging and notification process concludes this summer. Retrieving an impounded bicycle will require an active bike registration and associated fees in accordance with the University Bicycle Ordinance. More information, including bike storage options, is available by contacting bike@illinois.edu.

Volunteer for the Campus Bicycle Census

Volunteers are needed to count parked bicycles on campus from 10 a.m. to noon Tuesday, April 29. The collected census data will help update the campus bike parking map and be used to make future decisions about bicycle infrastructure and programs. Onsite training will begin at 10 a.m., with the bike counting to occur immediately thereafter.

Please share this information with others in your department or unit and help F&S support these vital bike programs. For more information, contact Sarthak Prasad, 217-300-9575.
