The Bicycle Program at UC Davis
UC Davis is a Platinum-rated Bicycle Friendly University, recognized by The League of American Bicyclists for its exceptional cycling infrastructure and culture. With bicycling as the #1 mode of transportation on campus, our Bicycle Program is here to support the Aggie community with education, resources, and services to keep everyone riding safely and efficiently. No matter how you choose to get around - bike, scooter, skateboard, etc. - we're here to help!
About Us
The UC Davis Bicycle Program proudly supports all Aggies who ride, roll, and walk across our campus. While we're called the Bicycle Program, we work with campus partners to advocate for safe, accessible pathways for all modes of travel.

Bicycle Program Services
- Transportation Device Registration:
Free registration for transportation devices including bikes and e-bikes, scooters, skateboards, and anything else that rolls. Registration is an important tool to help prevent theft on campus and return lost or stolen devices to their registered owners. Learn more here. - Bicycle Auction:
Each year, thousands of bicycles and other transportation devices are left abandoned on campus. Our team works year-round to collect and clear these bikes to keep campus spaces clear and organized, helping to divert waste from the landfill. We make every effort to return bikes to their owners, but many are unregistered and go unclaimed. Unclaimed bikes are then sold through our public bicycle auctions. UC Davis works with GovDeals, an online marketplace that allows the public to purchase surplus assets from government and educational entities. Explore the bicycle auction here. Bids start at $5! - Storage:
We understand that theft can be a concern, and you want peace of mind when leaving your bicycle or other transportation device unattended. Whether you're looking for daily storage in our lockers or bike cage, or need long-term storage solutions, we’ve got options to fit your needs. For more information on our storage services, give us a call at 530-752-2453 or send us an email. - Lock Cuts:
Lose your keys? Is your lock frozen shut? Or did someone lock their bike or scooter to yours? Don't worry - we're here to help free your bike as soon as possible. We offer free lock cut services anywhere on campus. Registration is required, or you can provide proof of ownership, and we’ll assist with registration. To arrange a lock cut, give us a call at 530-752-2453 or send us an email.
