Tips for Safe, Comfortable Cycling:
- Be Visible - follow the rules of the road, wear bright, reflective clothing and ensure you have good front and rear lights visible up to 150 metres.
- Always wear a helmet
- Invest in some comfortable rain gear (and/or some bus tickets for the days that you don’t want to negotiate the weather!)
- Choose your route to maximize comfort and enjoy the beautiful smells and colours of fall!
Being visible is very important and the best step you can take to ensure you that you continue to have a safe, relaxing and enjoyable ride!
