  • How to use the CATA bike racks

    Ever wonder how to use those bike racks on the front of all the CATA buses? Well now you can practice without the stress of people waiting for you.

    Here is a short compilation of videos of Tim Potter using this new demo bike rack installed outside the Shaw Transportation Center in the center of the MSU campus. Gives you a better idea of how the work.

    Thanks to Michigan State University Police and Public Safety Officer Schutter for shooting this video and for his efforts to coordinate everyone necessary to make this happen. Videos taken in May of 2022.

    Donate your Bike – Don’t Abandon it!

    The MSU Pack-up Pitch-In campaign is in full swing!

    Are you no longer needing your bike? Thinking of leaving your bike on the rack and hope it’ll be waiting for you in the fall? Well, please consider donating it directly to MSU Bikes rather than leave it to be vandalized or stolen over the summer. Or remove it from the rack and drop it off at the “Pack up Pitch in” donation location available in each hall.


    MSU has very few staff for hauling stuff around this year, so if you can PLEASE drop it off at the MSU Bikes Service Center before you leave campus (link to location info). If you have no time to drop it off please take it to the designated donation station in your residence hall.


    If you’re wanting to store it for the summer and know that it’ll be waiting for you in the fall consider the secure bike parking garages on campus (there are 2, one in the car parking ramp next to Olin Health and one near the MSU Parking/ Police station). The MSU Parking Department manages them so go here to learn more & register to use them.

    More info. about the secure bike parking facilities here.
