Important Safety Information
•
Helmets
: There is no single factor that works better at
reducing the severity of injuries sustained in bicycle
accidents more than a quality bicycle helmet . Please
don’t ever ride your bicycle without one .
•
It’s not a tandem
: Your bicycle was engineered to carry
one (1), [that is a single rider,] person safely . The rack on
the back is for luggage or a battery . Overloading the
bicycle with a second rider is a bad idea that can lead to
severe injury or death! Not to mention the fact that you
will severely impact the performance of the bicycle .
•
It’s the law; obey it
: Obey all traffic laws. Always ride
on the right side, with, not against, traffic. STOP signs
and traffic lights apply to cyclists as well as cars and
pedestrians .
•
Be alert to conditions around you!
Unfortunately, a
motorist that has successfully parallel parked his/her car
is not always thinking about the cyclist fast approaching
from behind. An impact with a car door suddenly
opened into your path will ruin your day .
•
Weather
: If you get caught in rain or snow, please be
aware that distance to stop your bicycle may double or
triple over the distance that it takes under dry conditions .
Ride more slowly and anticipate your stops by applying
the brakes MUCH earlier . Don’t forget that the roads are
a lot more slippery when wet . Bicycle tires don’t grip wet
pavement as well as dry pavement . Take the corners
carefully .
