Allow all 529 partner law enforcement agencies to view the contact information I have stored on my account.

By sharing your contact information with 529 partner law enforcement agencies, it may help get your bike back to you. For example, if police find your bike and you have shared your phone number, they can call you to confirm your bike is missing and sieze the bike even if you have not reported it missing with us yet. Sharing your contact information can also be used to help prevent fraudulent registrations.

529 Shield ID

What is a 529 Shield?

The shield ID will be 7 characters with no numbers.

After registering your bike please email the Transportation and Parking Services office at parking@odu.edu to schedule a time to pick up your Free Shield Decal. The tamper-resistant Shield decal acts as a deterrent, warning thieves to keep their paws off your bike, and makes it easier to contact you if your bike is found. The ODU Transportation and Parking Services office is located at 4310 Elkhorn Ave, Norfolk, VA 23508.

Secure your back wheel and frame with a highly rated U-lock to an approved bike rack.

How to Report a Bike Theft

If your bike is missing, it's important to report it to law enforcement - this helps the police better understand the scope of the problem.

Step 1:

Start an alert on your bike on the 529 Garage website or app.

If your bike isn't registered, register it first with all the information that you have about your bike, and then start the alert.
