UBCO Go By Bike Week and Lock Swap

June 3 at 10:00 am - 2:00 pm

Bike locked to outdoor bike rack outside of UNC at UBC Okanagan

Join UBCO Sustainable Transportation and our campus and community partners for a Spring Go By Bike Week Celebration! Stop by to learn more about biking at UBCO, upgrade your bike lock, grab some snacks, or get your bike checked!

Lock Swap: Do you rely on your bike to get to class, work, or around campus? If you do, it’s important to have a lock that is strong enough to keep your bike safe. As a part of Spring 2025 Go By Bike Week, UBCO students can swap their unsecure locks for FREE at our first ever Lock Swap to help students protect their rides and to promote safer cycling on campus.

Trade in an unsecure or weak bike lock (like a cable lock) for a brand-new Kryptonite U-Lock! New locks are first come first served, and you must be a current UBCO student to receive one. UBCO Campus Security will also be available to provide information about bike safety and theft prevention.

Community Partners: Mountain Lifestyle will be on-site offering free bike checks. Bring your bike and get a mechanic’s assessment of any needed repairs or tune-ups. Mountain Lifestyle will also be hosting a more in-depth bike maintenance workshop at 1pm, so you can learn how to keep your bike in great shape!

Lime will also be in attendance to share information and safe riding tips for e-scooters and e-bikes.
