<p>does anyone plan to purchase a bike and use it around campus? i'm trying to decide whether getting a bike would be useful, or just a waste because i'll just end up walking everywhere or commuting.</p>
<p>thoughts?</p>
<p>Make sure it’s a junky piece of crap nobody else would want. Bike theft is rampant in and around the campus.</p>
<p>HAHHA ^cracked me uppp. k brb gna go buy a bike thats a junky piece of crap :D</p>
<p>A lot of people use bikes, so you wouldn’t be an “abnormal” one to have one on campus. Buy a good lock, lock the bike on the frame and not the wheel. As MasterKuni said, don’t buy too beautiful of a bike … but if you buy a junky piece of crap, at least make sure it works ;)</p>
<p>Please be careful around vehicles, respectful around pedestrians though. I found that while most bikers are pretty good about safety, some are very reckless.</p>
<p>You’re not allowed to ride a fixed gear bike unless you also have earrings and a chin beard.</p>
