Drivers EXPECT to see you there!

5. When you are riding your BIKE…you should always ride in the SAME DIRECTION AS TRAFFIC! If there is no sidewalk where you are WALKING… you should always walk in the OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF TRAFFIC (against it). SEE THE DIFFERENCE?! OK! LISTEN UP…

6. It is very important that your bike works the right way EVERY time you ride it! CHECK TO MAKE SURE YOUR TIRES HAVE AIR IN THEM! DOES THE WHEEL STOP WHEN YOU USE THE BRAKE? IS ANYTHING STUCK IN THE CHAIN? DOES IT MOVE SMOOTHLY?

IF YOU’RE UNDER 18 YEARS OLD YOU MUST WEAR A HELMET PUT IT ON RIGHT EYES EARS MOUTH When you look UP…you should be able to see your helmet! The strap should form a “V” around your ear.
