**Bicycles**

Bicycle racks are conveniently located on the north, south, and west sides of the Science Center. There is space for 127 bikes around the building:

- The northwest side of the building near the Music Building's Paine Hall has a 19-bike capacity .
- The southeast of the building at the Plaza in front of Cabot Science Library has a 64-bike capacity.
- The west side of the building by Music Paine Hall has a 32-bike capacity.

Bike owners must refrain from locking bikes to trees or temporary barriers. Note that the bike racks are intended for short-term use. Bikes left at the racks for extended periods of time will be tagged and dated. After two-weeks, tagged bikes will be considered abandoned and will be removed and sent to recyling.
