If you have your own bicycle, you’re more than welcome to use it to get to your site. Make sure to bring a lock and we strongly recommend wearing your helmet.

B-cycle
We’ve formed a partnership with Madison’s bike-sharing program, B-cycle, to offer free use of the service. There are many B-cycle stations all throughout campus to start your trip. Plus, B-cycle has made an exclusive agreement to allow Badger Volunteers and Service Learning students to lock the bicycles up at locations without docking stations.
Interested in using B-cycle? Follow these steps:
1: Decide what mode of transportation is best for your team
2: Fill out this survey to become an approved user
3: Find the nearest B-cycle station on campus and go for a ride!
