Reminder About Bike and E-Bike Theft Prevention
Clark College Security has recently seen an increase in bicycle thefts on campus, particularly involving e-bikes. Recent thefts have included bikes secured to outdoor bike racks, including some with locking systems attached. We wanted to share a few reminders to help reduce the likelihood of theft and encourage everyone to plan accordingly when bringing bicycles to campus.
To help reduce the risk of theft:
- Use a high-quality U-lock or heavy-duty chain lock whenever possible. While no lock can completely prevent theft, stronger locking systems can make bikes more difficult to target.
- Secure both the frame and wheel to a fixed bike rack or secure structure.
- Avoid leaving bikes unattended for extended periods of time, especially overnight.
- Remove easily detachable accessories such as lights, bags, batteries, or displays when possible.
- Consider recording your bike?s serial number and taking photos for identification purposes.
- If your e-bike battery is removable, take it with you while on campus when practical.
Please remember that even busy or well-traveled areas can still be targeted for theft. Taking a few extra precautions can help reduce risk.
If you witness suspicious behavior around bike racks or campus property, contact Security immediately at 360-992-2133. Call 911 if you observe a crime in progress or there is an immediate threat to safety. Thank you for helping keep our campus community safe.
