BIKE MANUAL FOR NEW RIDERS
The Bianchi Team put together this great resource on all things bikes for newer riders. If you've got questions about training, bike maintenance or changing a flat, you'll find information in here.
SAFETY - OUR #1 PRIORITY
- Follow all COVID-19 protocols in accordance with the CDC and your state/local health agency requirements.
- Each rider must be in sound health for their chosen mileage goal.
- Always wear a helmet when you are riding your bike.
- If riding with others, stay to the right and leave at least one bike length between you and the rider in front of you. Ride single-file when appropriate.
- Use the dedicated bike lane whenever possible.
- Obey ALL traffic laws and road signs. Stop at all stop signs and red lights.
- Ride defensively and stay alert.
- Communicate your intention – use hand signals to indicate turns.
- Look behind you before passing to make sure it’s clear.
- Pass only when it’s safe to do so and only on the left. When passing, call out loudly, “On your left!”
- Never wear headphones or earbuds while on your bike. No selfie sticks.
- Eat before you feel hungry and drink before you feel thirsty. Stay hydrated!
- Be courteous and respectful to others.
