Do you have a bike on campus? If you are not using your bike, please consider taking it home this week and bringing it back over spring break when the weather improves.

If that is not a possibility, then please remove your bike from the outside bike racks and keep it in your dorm or apartment during the break so that it isn’t a temptation to thieves. Always keep your bike locked up, preferably with a U-lock.
