What is Rams Roll? Rams Roll is Colorado State University’s bicycle, e-bicycle, e-scooter, and e-skateboard registration, impounding, rack management and education program. The program is funded in part by the Alternative Transportation Fee and aims to increase ridership of active transportation devices, increase transportation safety and reduce theft.
U-Lock, Cable, and Bike Lights! Students who complete a new registration and pick up their sticker will receive a u-lock, cable, and bike lights ($50+ value)! Please note: this offer is limited to students, as the lock, cable, and lights are funded through student fees.

Complete a bicycle impound request form. The Rams Roll team will assess the request and may reach out to you if they need additional information. If the bike is determined to be abandoned, it will be impounded.
If your bike has been impounded, the Rams Roll team will try to contact you if your bike is registered and your sticker is visible. If a team member is unable to contact you, the bike will be kept in the CSU Police Department impound lot for 25 days, per Colorado Law. After 25 days, the bike will be transferred to Surplus Properties, 201 W Lake St., for resale to the general public.

Display your Registration Sticker: They’re hard to remove and can be a deterrent to thieves. Lock Up: Always lock up your device, even if you’re leaving it for “just a minute.” We recommend a U-shaped high-security lock with a cable or chain to secure quick-release components (like wheels and seats). Customize Your Device: Customize your device with stickers, lights, and other decorations making it recognizable and hard to resell.
Thousands of people bike, scoot and skate at CSU each day and are expected to follow the Safe Commuting Regulations on campus to ensure safety and predictability. These regulations cover proper device parking on campus, moving regulations, dismount zones and more.
The Rams Roll team is part of CSU Transportation who works in partnership with the CSU Police Department, Housing and Dining Services and Central Receiving (The Spoke and CSU Surplus) to run the program.
