Adrienne and bike safety


Bike safety is very important no matter how short the trip. Bike helmets decrease head injuries by a wopping 80%! It is important to wear you helmet correctly as well. It should sit level on the child's head, the Y should come to just under the ears and it should be snug enough that went the child opens their mouth they can feel it "hugging" there head.

Helmets come in many sizes and should of course be the correct size for the child. I hope everyone who hasn't gives helmets a second thought. Just like you wouldn't ride in the car with out a car seat don't forget the helmet!
