MTSU Campus Recreation

Bike Shop and Repair Center

Welcome to the Bike Shop located within the Campus Recreation center! Whether you’re a first time biker or an enthusiast we have what you need to get outside and active with cycling!

We offer an impressive selection of bicycles specially tailored for any situation. From commuter bikes for zipping between classes, to sturdy and reliable mountain bikes for off-campus adventures, we’ve got you covered. 

Bike Rentals:

  • A commuter fleet of 30 bicycles for rent.
    • The bikes are single speed bikes with regular v brakes; Helmet and lock are included at no additional cost!
  • Rental cards for $35.
    • The cards allow you to rent a bike for a 5-day period at any time for the semester. Rental must occur while the bike shop is open. With a rental, you sign an agreement to follow all rules and regulations for bike safety on campus.

Bike shop pick-up and drop off:

Use the Bike Shop entrance in the loading dock area rather than the main entrance. If you are facing the the Rec from Blue Raider Drive and see the drive-thru Pharmacy, the loading dock and Bike Shop is just past this area. You can easily access this part of the building by using Homecoming Circle next to Womack Lane Apartments.
