Get out and ride! But do it safely by protecting your brain: 1. Helmet should rest a 2-finger width above eyebrows 2. chin strap is snug but comfortable 3. side straps should lie flat on either side of the ear.

5 tips to ride safely: • Have your bike checked over by your local bike shop • Always wear a helmet to protect your head in the event of a crash • Ride in the right-most lane that goes in the direction that you are travelling • Obey all stop signs, traffic lights and lane markings • Look before you change lanes or signal a turn; indicate your intention, then act • Be visible and predictable at all times; wear bright clothing and signal turns.
