Do not use a personal stereo or a mobile phone while cycling.
See and be seen
Ride one behind the other
Be alert to pot holes, gravel, car doors opening, children running across, animals, carts
Be visible while riding in the dark—wear a fluoroscent jacket
Be predictable on the road
Use a cycle helmet
