Bike Resources

Ride on!

Ride a bike to class, to run errands or just relax. It’s a great way to feel good, burn calories, save gas money and reduce your carbon footprint.

At CLC, we’ve got your ticket to ride!

Bike share

Don’t have a bike to use? No problem! CLC is a proud member of the first bike share program in Lake County.

Borrow a bike for free (or a minimal fee) at CLC’s Grayslake and Lakeshore campuses. Use it to commute, run errands or enjoy the great outdoors. Explore the Living Lab Trail or Rollins Savanna Forest Preserve. If cycling leaves you sweaty, use your student I.D. to shower at the Fitness Center.

CLC Grayslake Campus:
- Building F - Athletics & Fitness Center
- Outside of A Wing Science Building
CLC Lakeshore Campus
Grayslake community:
- Lake Street Metra
- Village Center
- Parking lot on Whitney St. / Hawley St.
- Mill Creek Park (Atkinson Rd. / Washington St.)
- Central Park
- FREE for CLC students
- $3 for the first hour
- $1 each additional hour
To use a bike, do the following:
1. Download the Koloni app from the Apple or Google Play store
2. Create an account with your phone number or email address. Use your student email to borrow the bike for free
3. Find bike locations
4. Scan the QR code on the bike
5. Bike unlocks - Enjoy your ride!

The bike share program is a partnership between College of Lake County, Village of Grayslake, Grayslake Public Library, and Grayslake Park District.

Bike repair

You rode your bike to class. Awesome! Then a tire goes flat, or a pedal loosens. Where’s roadside assistance when you need it? For CLC cyclists, the free Bike Resource Station is located just outside the Athletic and Fitness Center (Building F).

Use the station to make an unexpected repair, for routine maintenance or to tune up before a longer ride.

Hang the bike on the extended bars of the station so the pedals and wheels spin freely. Then use the attached tools or bike pump to perform basic repairs and maintenance, like changing a flat tire or adjusting brakes and derailleurs.
Now you can ride with confidence, without carrying an extensive bike repair kit. (You might want to carry a patch kit, though.) Teach your friends how to use the station, too—the more riders, the better.
The bike resource station is convenient if you’re cycling the Living Lab Trail or crossing campus to link with the Rollins Savanna Trail or the Washington Street Metra Station.
