- Make sure that your bike is properly adjusted for you.
- Drive slowly on bike paths and sidewalks.
- Look both ways before crossing the street.
- Walk your bike across streets and at crosswalks.
- Be aware of vehicles around you.
- Stay alert and watch out for obstacles in your way, such as potholes.
- Obey traffic signs, signals and laws.
- Ride along with traffic on the right side of the road.
- Ride single file while biking with others.
- Wear light colored clothing while biking at night.
