Upcoming Spring
Biking Tips!
By following the ten rules below this spring, your bicycle riding can be much more fun and safe:
#1 Wear a helmet. Never ride a bicycle without a helmet.
#2 See and be seen. Wear clothes that make you more visible.
#3 Avoid biking at night. It is far more dangerous to bicycle at night than during the day.
#4 Stay alert. Always keep a lookout for obstacles.
#5 Go with the flow. Ride on the right side in a straight predictable path.
#6 Check for traffic. Always be aware of the traffic around you.
#7 Learn the rules of the road. Bicyclists must obey the same rules as motorists. Always obey traffic laws.
#8 Assure bicycle readiness. Make sure you can stand over the top tube of your bicycle. Make sure your bicycle is adjusted properly.
#9 Stop it. Always check your brakes before riding and control your speed by using them.
#10 Don’t be a “Hotshot!” Keep both wheels on the ground.
