HELMETS: All riders are required to wear an ANSI/Snell/CPSC approved helmet while riding.
SAFETY: Ohio law regards the bicycle as a vehicle. The same rules apply to a bicyclist or a motorist. This means riding WITH traffic, stopping at all stop signs and red lights and giving hand signals to indicate turns. Be courteous to motorists and move to the right to permit vehicles to pass if you feel it is safe to do so. Safety is YOUR reponsibility.
