Spring Bike Safety Campaign

Tuesday, May 7
1:00pm – 4:30pm at the base of campus
(Bay and High Streets)

The Bicycle Safety Campaign is a TAPS and the Student Environmental Center
co-sponsored event to educate the campus community about safe riding techniques, including how to give proper hand signals, the legal requirements for bike lights, how to be a more confident cyclist, and more.

After completing a survey about safe bicycle riding practices campus affiliates with a UCSC ID will be fitted for a free bicycle helmet (allow for 10 minutes to complete the process). Helmet quantity is limited; helmets will be given away until 4:30pm, or until gone - whichever comes first. Helmet "rain checks" are not available so arrive early.
Contact Cathy Crowe for more information.
