The U-Bolt Lock and chain should always be wrapped around the bike frame and tire
The Headlight and Power sources should not be left on the bike outside or overnight

How to use a U-Bolt Lock
How to use a U-Bolt Lock
Watch this video to learn how to properly use a U-Bolt Lock and Chain. (Watch from 0:00 to 1:16)
Because of the size of the bike, you can utilize the U-Bolt through the back tire and use the U-Bolt Chain by wrapping the chain around the frame of the bike (pulling on end's loop through the other's ends loop), and connecting the loop to the U-bolt chain

HRL Bikes should not be on the main roads around the university. You are able to get across campus utilizing the bike lanes of the main university paths.

Riding the Bike
Riding the Bike
These tricycles are larger, heavier, and build up momentum faster than your average bike. They take a longer to break, so anticipate ahead when you need to stop.
It will be important to make sure you are familiar and comfortable with the bike before going across campus.
If you are completely unfamiliar with how to ride a bike, schedule a time to check out the bike and work with someone in the department knowledgeable.
