Bug-A-Bike!

Have a bicycle on campus?  Afraid of a possible theft?

BUG YOUR BIKE...for FREE!
Bring your bicycle to the Baker WEST lobby for a free "bug" that will be placed into the frame of your bicycle by the Ohio State University Police Department!

The OSU Police Department is able to return recovered bicycles that are "bugged" to their rightful owner.  The "bug" is NOT a GPS tracking device but a chip that will fit inside the frame of your bicycle and be receptive to Police Scanners.  Whether scanned in a cluster of bikes at the bike racks or on the floor of a pawn shop, OSU Police has great ability to recover bugged bikes!  Don't miss this FREE opportunity to help reduce bicycle theft!
