As of 2018, Bar-Ilan's campus is littered with bright yellow bicycles, which may be rented by anyone.

To borrow one of the bikes, you must:

1. Download the OFO app (Google Play | AppStore).
2. Type in the Bike Number into the app.
3. Input the code into the lock (Note: you must put them in from right to left!) and press to unlock.

Despite popular opinion, you are required to return the bikes to one of the 15 bike stands located throughout campus.
