SAFE SUMMER CYCLING:
Hot summer cycling tips to help you stay safe bicycling in the
summer heat. You need to be prepared to keep your self safe. Summertime offers
many cycling dangers including the potential to suffer a heat stoke if not
prepared.
-
Drink plenty
of water: when cycling you will lose a lot of moisture through
your skin. It is important to keep your body hydrated by drinking lots of
water, which can be stored in a bottle that clips neatly to your bicycle
frame.
-
Keep the sun off your head:
wearing a bike helmet is essential for safety, but in the summer sun it also
helps provide shade.
-
Take breaks: If you feel
you are getting too hot while cycling then stop. Make sure you pull over to
the side of the road safely, away from traffic.
-
Be seen:
although it does not get dark until late in the summer, do not
get caught out without your lights.
