Do a pre-ride check

Try the grip bell; and if you’re riding at night, check that the front and rear lights are illuminated.

Alert symbol

Be predictable

Make it easy for the traffic around you. Don’t make unexpected turns that put yourself and others in danger. Ride at a steady pace so other vehicles can anticipate your movement.

A helmet

Wear a helmet

Whenever you ride, wear a helmet. Always buckle the strap. Replace your helmet after any crash and whenever you see signs of damage.

Tips for turns

Use hand signals to let drivers know your intention to turn or to stop. Don’t turn or change lanes without knowing the position of the vehicles around you.
