UCSB has over 7 miles of Class I bicycle paths, 3 bicycle underpasses and 9 bicycle roundabouts.

Students also have $250k per year in lock-in registration fees to fund the Associated Student Bicycle Shop which educates and loans tools and expertise to teach the campus community how to maintain and repair their bicycles. UCSB has a two-mile restriction on the sale of long-term parking permits to undergraduates.
