<p>Are the large bicycle cages at Dorms locked at night? </p>

<p>If so, is there any advantage to locking your bicycle in one of the 4 official bicycle storage units in the parking garages, for example, the one under the student union, which are locked and require a code to gain entrance, vs locking your bicycle in the cages at the dorms?</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>Bike theft is pretty rampant on campus, so you should lock up your bike in the most secure way possible.</p>

<p>I remember reading (I think the Bear Necessities handbook) that Unit 3 has it’s own bicycle garage that requires a key for access. It only mentioned Unit 3 so I’m not sure about the other units. How secure and effective they are at actually preventing theft I cannot answer. I’ll see if I can maybe get some information about it at CalSO.</p>
