Bike Safety

We had a blast last Saturday at our bike safety event. The kids had tons of fun riding their bikes around our outside obstacle course, and children and adults alike learned a lot about safe bike maintenance, proper helmet fitting, and using signals while biking. Thank you very much to Dan Lynch and Dr. David Spingarn from the Saratoga Healthy Transportation Network for joining us and providing us with their knowledge about bikes and bike safety!

Dan shows us how to signal a right turn, with our left arm bent at the elbow.

Your helmet straps should be tight enough that you can only fit two fingers between your chin and the strap. It should also come down over your forehead so you can just see the top.

Remember to obey all traffic signs!
