Always lock your bike securely to an immovable object using two locks minimum and register your bike's identification number in case it is stolen. Be visible to motorists, follow traffic signals, and maintain awareness through your senses for safety while cycling. In the event of an accident, contact authorities and the local cycling organization for assistance.
