PortCity Bike Tours Riding Safety Check-List


1. Obey all Rules of the Road and all local New Hampshire traffic and bicycle laws.

2. Please, DO NOT use a cell phone. If there is an emergency call, say you are going to stop and we will all stop and wait for you.

3. You are sharing the road or the path with others — motorists, pedestrians and other cyclist respect their rights, ride single file.

4. If you need to stop, please say that you are stopping so those around you will also, stop. Ride defensively. Always assume that others do not see you. Look ahead, and be ready to avoid hazards such as:

• Vehicles slowing or turning, entering the road or your lane ahead of you, or coming up behind you.

• Parked car doors opening.

• Pedestrians stepping out or children or pets playing near the road.

• Potholes, sewer grating, railroad tracks, expansion joints, road or sidewalk construction, debris and other obstructions that could cause you to swerve into traffic, catch your wheel or cause you to have an accident.

• The many other hazards and distractions which can occur on a bicycle ride.

5. Ride in designated bike lanes, on designated bike paths or as close to the edge of the road as possible, in the direction of traffic flow or as directed by NH Bicycle governing laws.

6. Stop at stop signs and traffic lights; slow down and look both ways at street intersections. Remember that a bicycle always loses in a collision with a motor vehicle, so be prepared to yield even if you have the right of way.

7. Use approved hand signals for turning (right or left hand extended) and stopping (raising hand up).

8. Never ride with headphones. They mask traffic sounds and emergency vehicle sirens, distract you from concentrating on what’s going on around you, and their wires can tangle in the moving parts of the bicycle, causing you to lose control.

9. Never carry a passenger, unless it is a small child wearing an approved helmet and secured in a correctly mounted child carrier or a child-carrying trailer.

10. Never carry anything which obstructs your vision or your complete control of the bicycle, or which could become entangled in the moving parts of the bicycle.

11. Don’t do stunts, wheelies or jumps. If you intend to do stunts, wheelies or jumps or go racing with your bike despite our advice not to.

12. Don’t weave through traffic or make any moves that may surprise people with whom you are sharing the road.

13. Never ride your bicycle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. We will stop the tour if there is a safety issue.

14. If possible, avoid riding in bad weather, when visibility is obscured, at dawn, dusk or in the dark, or when extremely tired.


* Each of these conditions increases the risk of accident
