All UMKC students and benefit-eligible faculty and staff may register for a bike. Bikes are loaned on a first come first serve basis. It’s your bike to use whenever and wherever you choose!

 

 

These rentals are semester-long and must be returned on the Wednesday during Finals Week. Late fees are assessed to student account if returned past the due date.

Bikes can be reserved online via our reservation portal. We will work with you to provide a bike that is available that fits your requirements.

Please notify Campus Rec immediately so can provide minor bike maintenance and repair. Charges may apply for parts and labor on installation and major adjustments. If the bike is totaled or stolen, the leasee may be responsible for replacement costs, as indicated on the waiver.

Campus Rec does not provide bike helmets but strongly recommends its use. Head injuries cause about 75% of the approximately 700 bicycling-related fatalities each year in the U.S. Wearing a CPSC-certified helmet can reduce the risk of head injuries by 85%.
