- Long or loose clothing can get caught in bike chains or wheel spokes. Dress young kids appropriately
- Actively supervise children until you are comfortable that they are responsible to ride on their own.
- Children should be able to demonstrate riding competence and knowledge of the rules of the road before cycling with traffic.
