Bike to Work Stamford is one of many events taking place across Connecticut and the nation during Bike to Work week.  Here are some tips that will help you enjoy biking to work:

•           Always wear a helmet to protect your head in the event of a crash.

•           Have your bike checked over by your local bike shop.

•           Ride in the right-most lane in the direction of traffic.

•           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.

•           Save money, get healthy, have fun!
