Why Register Your Bike?

Law enforcement agencies recover hundreds of bikes each year but typically have little information to assist in identifying the owners. By registering your bike you will increase the chance of recovery and assist law enforcement in returning it to you if it's found. Register your bike today. It's easy and it's free!

Your contact information

By registering your bike with La Crosse Police Department, you allow them to view your contact information. In most cases, you would only be contacted by La Crosse Police Department if there is a question about your bike, registration or alert, or if your bike was found. You can also update these permissions in your user settings at any time.

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.
