Bike Registration

All student-owned bikes at Carleton College are recommended to be registered and displaying a uniquely numbered registration decal. The bike registration process will help identify you as the owner, should it be stolen or need to be temporarily relocated due to snow removal or construction projects. Additionally, this will assist with the identification and removal of abandoned bikes allowing for more space in campus bike racks.
