The Fort Atkinson PD Bike Patrol Unit is comprised of approximately 10 specially trained officers. The primary objective of the bike patrol program is to provide an improved police presence in our downtown business districts, at special events and at our community trails and parks.
Our agency currently maintains a fleet of six (6) SALSA Rangefinder Mountain Bikes that are fully equipped for police patrol work.
Our Bike Unit is an IPMBA trained and certified team. This essential training combines Emergency Vehicle Operations for bike officers with patrol procedures, tactics, night operations, scenarios, and basic bike maintenance and on-the-road repairs. Through this training Fort Atkinson Bike Unit Officers learn to ride like a pro, avoid crashes, and use their bike as a tactical response tool.
