But Be Safe! Keep The Rubber-Side Down! - …...Swap Tire Rubber For Shoe Rubber – But Be Safe!...
2
Bicyclists are required to obey the same traffic laws as vehicles Stop at all red lights and stop signs Signal before making turns Use a headlight and reflectorized safety equipment when riding at night ALWAYS wear a helmet when riding, Montgomery County law requires cyclists under 18 to wear a helmet Wear bright colored clothing with reflective strips particularly at night Be sure your bike is in proper operating condition before each ride Never ride against traffic Watch for turning vehicles and vehicles exiting driveways Be aware of parked cars and watch for car doors that may open Give pedestrians the right of way Never ride two people on a bike designed for one Never carry packages that can obstruct views or interfere with control of the bike Teach children the rules of the road for their protection Ride on the right side of the road with the flow of traffic Swap Tire Rubber For Shoe Rubber – But Be Safe! FACT: The average passenger vehicle traveling 40 MPH requires a minimum of 189 feet to come to a complete stop. When a vehicle collides with a pedestrian, the pedestrian is always the more seriously injured party, regardless of who may be at fault. There is little a pedestrian can do to improve a driver’s habits... but there are steps one can take to be safer while walking. • Be predictable. Cross or enter streets where it is legal to do so. • Where no sidewalks are provided, it is usually safer to walk facing road traffic. • Make it easy for drivers to see you - dress in light colors and wear reflective material. • Most drivers are nice people, but don’t count on them paying attention.Watch out - make eye contact to be sure they see you! • Alcohol and drugs can impair your ability to walk safely,just like they do a person’s ability to drive. • Use extra caution when crossing multiple-lane, higher speed streets. Be alert-especially at “Right-turn-on-red” intersections. • Follow the pedestrian signal, not the overhead traffic signal. • Before crossing, stop at the curb and scan left, right and left again for traffic. Keep scanning for cars while you are crossing. TELL YOUR BOSS! Montgomery County Commuter Services provides free consulting services to employers to help them establish commuting benefits for their employees.Alternative commuting saves time and reduces expenses – all while being kind to the environment. Let the Montgomery County Commuter Services show you or your employees how to beat the traffic. Call (301) 770- POOL (7665) or visit www.montgomerycountymd.gov/ commute. Or, stop by the Commuter ExpressTransit Store (located at 8401 Colesville Road, Suite 150,7 a.m. to 5 p.m. (M-F) for information, maps and schedules, or to purchase transit passes and tokens.Their services are FREE! Keep The Rubber-Side Down! • Tires - Look for rips or cuts, sidewall bulges, cracking or loss of tread. Replace if needed before tube is damaged. • Wheels -Wheels should be securely fastened with quick release levers turned inwards toward the wheel. They lock by turning, not screwing shut. Wheels should spin without rubbing or wobbling. • Spokes - Check for bends or breaks.Tighten loose spokes.Broken spokes may mean a bent rim needs to be replaced. • Chain - Remove dirt and lubricate. Replace chains that have frozen links. • Gears and Crank set - Replace gears that have worn or broken teeth.Make sure the cranks are tight by rocking from side to side – they should not move laterally. • Pedals - Roughness indicates pedals need to be repacked with grease.Tighten loose pedals on crank arm. • Brakes - Squeeze each brake lever to be sure it stops before touching the handlebar. Inspect brake pads.The forward part of the brake pads must strike the rim first to prevent squealing. If the pad surface is worn away, replace them. • Keep handlebars and saddle fastened tightly. • Frame should be free from cracks, bends and wrinkles. • Accessories and attachments should be secure. Why Bike? • For Your Health - Bicycling is one of the best forms of aerobic, low-impact exercise (approximately 375-600 calories burned per hour,depending on speed). • For Your Wallet - Car ownership is expensive and consumes a major portion of many Americans’ income.AAA reports it costs over $5,000 per year to own and operate a car (compared to $120 per year to own and maintain a bicycle). • For your Schedule - Combine your commute with your workout. Biking can get you there nearly as fast as driving for many local trips. • For the Environment - The U.S. puts between 25 and 45 per cent of its total energy (depending upon how one calculates this) into vehicles: to make them, to run them, and to clear a right of way for them when they roll and park. Motor vehicles also create a substantial amount of pollution. Bicycles are as true a “no emissions” vehicle as there is. • For FUN!!! Safe Cyclists Never Overlook the Basics 1. The helmet should rest snug and flat on top of the head, not too far forward or backward. 2. The helmet straps should be snug but not too tight and should form a “V” under the ears. 3. Once the helmet straps are snapped together,there should be enough room to fit one finger between chin and strap. 4. Watch for shoelaces, pant legs, etc. that can get caught in your bike chain. 5. REMEMBER: Traffic laws apply to bicycles, too. Observe stop signs, traffic lights and other posted signs. Be sure to signal turns, lane changes and stops.
