If you aren’t riding your bike, please consider taking it home this week and bringing it back spring break when the weather is a bit more conducive to bike riding. If that is not a possibility, then please remove it from the outdoor bike racks and keep it in your dorm room or apartment so it isn’t a temptation to thieves.
Thank you!
