I was wondering what time should I avoid the bike traffic at Davis 😨? Im a freshie and a new biker so I'm a dangerous combo haha. This video helped me a lot thank you!
+Anna Bui Hey Anna! Passing periods are the worst times to bike... so like from 1-1:10, 2-2:10, etc. Also 11:50-12:10 is pretty bad lol If you don't have back to back classes, I would suggest waiting until the passing period is over and then bike back to your dorm :) I used to wait until about 4:15 or so before biking back after one of my classes and almost nobody would be out at that time
So I am going to be coming to UCD and I was wondering if cheap department store bikes get stolen that often? I honestly find it a bit much to buy a $30 U-lock and cable for a $90 Target mountain bike. Would several cable locks be just as good to try to deter a bike thief?
+supergi184 The thing is, cables are really easy to cut through. A lot of people use just U-locks (rather than a u-lock cable combo) and try to get their front wheel locked in too. I would definitely say U-lock over cable. One of my friends advised me not to get the $10 RiteAid cause it breaks right away lol so I'm sure if you get one from Walmart or Target you'll be fine
Hey! Where is that wall located on campus that's in this video's thumbnail? I've always seen pictures of people on it but can never seem to find it myself lol

Welcome! Good luck with your first year at Davis!
Would you say that this video applies to Seattle college campuses too? Seems like most of what you said is good general advice
Probably! I would think that any area with a lot of bikes around would follow these guidelines! 😊
Hey! Where is that wall located on campus that's in this video's thumbnail? I've always seen pictures of people on it but can never seem to find it myself lol
it's over by young hall! like between young and Dutton:) haha
Anywhere I can buy a cheap bike? Are there any affordable bike shop in Davis? Is the one on campus any hood?
the bike shops in Davis are not cheap! especially the one on campus! haha I would recommend target or Walmart
also, people sell their bikes on Craig's list and the uc Davis free and for sale page
Is it okay if I don’t ride a bike? LOL
Crystal Chai at davis? YES!!! I hate biking and do it as little as possible 😂 I haven't even used my bike this year
Hey I live in Davis
Thanks for these tips! I'm an adult bicycler in lieu of a car and I am returning to college.
