May is

National Bike Month

Here are some tips to help keep kids safe when riding their bikes:

  • Always wear an approved safety helmet when using bikes, skateboards, scooters and in-line skates, too.
  • Ride only a bike that is the right size.  Riding a bike that is too large or too small can be dangerous.
  • Riding in the street is dangerous.  It is safer for children to ride in the park, on bike trails or on the sidewalk.
  • If you ride in the street, know the Rules of the Road. Always obey traffic signs, signals and pavement markings. Signal your turns.
  • Walk your bike across busy intersections and streets.

Visit www.bikeleague.org for information on a bicycle friendly America.  For information on bike helmet safety, visit the Bicycle Helmet Safety Institute's website at www.bhsi.org.
