Cycling

There is no spoken word. 

This video gives a brief visual of the annual Ride to UTS day event held in 2017. 

Cyclists arrive individually at UTS, sign-in at the reception desk, help themselves to free breakfast, and socialise and chat. 

There are plenty of places to park your bike around campus, along with change rooms, showers, and lockers.

Some of the best spots are undercover. Like the Hub under Building 10 with indoor access to the Engineering and IT building next door. Enter via the car park entrance on Thomas St.

To activate your student or staff card for access, see the main security office in the foyer of the Tower building. For a locker, email Central Services.

The Dr Chau Chak Wing Building has similar facilities, with undercover parking, changerooms, and lockers.

The Sports Hall also has indoor parking. Enter through building 4 on the corner of Harris and Thomas Streets, and follow the signs.

If full there is street parking on the footpath outside the Chinese Medicine centre. Riders can use the change rooms in the sports hall on the lower level beside the playing courts.

On Harris St, park outside the gym with easy access to Building 4, and cross at the lights if you’re heading to Building 6.

There is also a rack out the back of Building 6 on the Goods Line.

If you’re down at Building 5, there is street parking outside the library, or even better, off street parking right beside the doors of Buildings 5B and 5C.

For secure parking in Building 5, with double door pin access and cameras, enter off Darling Drive. Again, see security to organise access. There are showers and lockers nearby, and see the UTS Activate counter in the newsagency on the ground floor about these lockers.

All indoor bike parking areas have security cameras and bike pumps.
So with all these options, don’t risk your own safety or your bike’s by parking in dumb places like disabled ramps, or too close to moving traffic. It’s not worth the risk. Ride safe, park safe, and enjoy the trip.
