Safety
There are several measures one can take to ensure optimum safety on your bike.
-Working lights. Working lights are essential. Be careful not to be caught out by early darkness in winter without your lights.
-Wear a helmet & luminous jacket. Available from bike shops
-Maintenance- Regularly performing the maintenance tasks listed above should ensure that your bike will not have any mechanical problems.
-Utilise cycle paths and cycle lanes- Using these does not just save you time, but also minimises your time spent sharing the road with other vehicles. However, if cycling along paths in the dark it is advised to travel in pairs or more.
