The national recovery rate for stolen bikes is about 20%. Oftentimes, when bikes are recovered, their owners cannot be located or legally reclaim their property because they don't know their serial number. By registering your bicycle, you increase your chances of it being returned if it is stolen because serial number information is readily available! We recommend all students, faculty, and staff who intend to ride and secure their bicycles on the campus utilize the free bicycle registration offered by the GSU Police Department. Bring your bicycle information, including serial number and description, to the Georgia Southern University Police Department and we will assist you in filling out the necessary form.
