June 3 is World Bicycle Day, which was established to promote the health, environmental, and economic benefits of cycling. We encourage everyone to ride their bikes today, and wanted to offer tips from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to enjoy riding safely:

• Wear a helmet that fits properly. Click here to see how to find the right fit: https://www.nhtsa.gov/.../bike-safety-fitting-helmet.pdf

• Ride a bike that fits you and that works properly

• Wear equipment that makes you visible to others

• Drive defensively – focused and alert

• Drive with the flow of traffic and make sure to follow all traffic laws as you would in a car

• Drive predictably so motorists can get a sense of what you intend to do to avoid a crash
