Hi kids this is Cowboy Ted - founder of Cowboy Ted’s Foundation for Kids with the Healthy Tip for Kids.

Today’s topic is bicycle safety. Riding your bike is a great activity and keeps you healthy. Please keep a few safety tips in mind when you ride your bike.

Always wear your helmet. Many bike accidents result in head injuries and helmet can save your life and protect you from some painful collisions. Wear bright colors or reflective clothing when you ride and it is always a good idea to ride with at least one other person for safety reasons.

Please remember to follow the rules of the road and obey all laws for bicycles. Ride in the bike lanes whenever possible and ride with the flow of traffic and be sure to stop at all stop signs and red lights.

Keep in mind that bikes are often difficult for drivers of cars to see – especially if you are riding with the sun to your back. Make eye contact with drivers and wait for them to wave you across when crossing in front of cars – even in cross walks.

Healthy Kids are no accident – make sure you wear a helmet when you ride your bike. Wear reflective clothing and try to ride with at least one other friend or family member.
