Illinois Bicycle Rules of the Road

When leaving your bike unattended, even if for only a short while, please lock your bike with a sturdy high quality lock. Bicycle thefts are most prominent during the spring and summer months.

We also urge you to register your bicycle with the Elmhurst Police Department, free of charge. In the unfortunate circumstance of a bike being stolen, a registered bike provides the police department with a greater probability of tracking and recovering it.
