Happy Bike Month
Happy Bike Month! To celebrate, @HIPCuyahoga and @BikeCleveland teamed up with DJ Steph Floss and Z1079 to help promote various aspects of bicycling and encourage more people to ride. Roadways with protected bike lanes have dedicated space for bikes and motor vehicles. They make riding a bike safer, make driving a car less stressful and will increase bike riding in Cleveland. When built as a network, they create a space for riders of all ages and abilities to travel safely from place to place. Learn more at hipcuyahoga.org or bikecleveland.org. HIP-Cuyahoga supports Bike Cleveland in their effort to improve walking and biking for all in the Cleveland area in conjunction with the Active People Healthy Nation initiative.
Driving Near Cyclist
Ever drive near a cyclist and wonder “What to do? What’s really legal?” To celebrate Bike Month, @HIPCuyahoga and @BikeCleveland teamed up with DJ Steph Floss and Z1079 to inform people about bicycling and encourage more people to ride. Always pass cyclists with a minimum of 3 feet – it’s state law. It’s legal to cross the centerline to pass a cyclist, when conditions are safe to do so. Cyclists have the right to the full lane when needed. Be patient and courteous until it is safe to pass. Cyclists aren’t blocking traffic, they ARE traffic.

ABC Bike Check
Video Coming Friday 5/24!
To celebrate Bike Month @HIPCuyahoga and @BikeCleveland are promoting safe cycling. In this video, Deltrece shows DJ Steph Floss from Z1079 how to quickly do the ABC quick check, to make sure your bike is ready to ride. A is for “air”. B is for “brakes”. C is for “chain”. Then check all quick release levers to make sure your wheels and seat are tightened down. Learn more at hipcuyahoga.org or bikecleveland.org.
