How to Stay Visible While Riding Your Bike
Being visible increases your safety on the road. Here are some tips for being seen:1) Ride In The Daylight - one of the easiest ways to stay more visible when cycling is to ride during the day whenever possible when there's plenty of light.
2) Light up your bike- use a bright white front light of at least 300 lumens on the front and a red rear light of a minimum of 110 lumens. A blinking light, front or rear, will attract even more attention.
3) Adjust your position on the road to be seen - the best position for a cyclist riding on a road is as far right as practicable, but sometimes the road configuration suggests your position be adjusted further left to be better seen. At stop lights get in front of a line of cars waiting for the traffic light to change so motorists can see you and be aware of any cars making a right turn in front of you.
4) Signal your intentions - use hand signals to let other road users know if you can changing lanes, slowing down, or turning.
5) Wear reflective clothing - apparel that reflects light from car headlights and other road users is a good choice for all outdoor activity. Outerwear that is waterproof, windproof, and breathable is a plus.
