May is Bike Safety / Travel Safety Month

National Bike Month is an opportunity to celebrate the unique power of the bicycle and the many reasons we ride. Whether you bike to work or school; to save money or time; to preserve your health or the environment; to explore your community or get to your destination, get involved in Bike Month in your city or state — and help get more people in your community out riding too!

For more information see our Bicycle Safety page. 

As school winds down many families start planning their summer get-aways.  Travel is always fun, but some sensible steps can help you be more aware of your surroundings and lessen the risk of theft or worse during your travels.

Valuables
Generally speaking, refrain from packing any valuables you don't absolutely need on a trip.

Safety
Traveling safely means being aware of your surroundings and steering clear of trouble. When walking on the streets, stick to main thoroughfares that are well lit and full of people. Stay away from places where there may be a police presence, such as public demonstrations or high crime areas. 

Contacts and Knowledge
Make sure someone at home has a detailed copy of your itinerary before you travel. That includes specific information like hotels and phone numbers for each of your destinations. Check in regularly with your contact at home (once a day or so) so they know where you are.
