Before setting out a well-maintained bicycle is the key. First... Check tire pressure Check the chain does not slip Check the brakes Check lights and reflectors Bicycles that are well maintained; with all the required equipment help guarantee that cyclists and other road users are safe we also suggest the following equipment: 1 A horn bell– since a bicycle is nearly silent and often simple bells allow cyclists to make their presence known to pedestrians. 2 A Rearview mirror- allows cyclists to check traffic safety before passing. 3 A safety flag– which encourages motorists to pass at a safe distance.

Did you know
Head injuries are the cause of death in approximately 60% of fatal biking accidents. If you fall, this part of the body is the most exposed to serious injury. In an accident, the force of the impact is distributed over the surface of the helmet, rather than on the head. That’s why it’s important to have a good helmet.

Airnimal Joey Sport £321.99 With 24inch wheels, the Airnimal is ready for long sport and leisure rides as well as nipping around town
Airnimal C2W £299.99 If you are looking for a folder that rides as well as a standard bike, this full suspension German model could be the perfect choice. Airnimal bikes come in several different flavours but they all have two things in common, first they feature suspension at both the front and rear to improve the quality of the ride. Second they’re folders, so you can carry them about easily and store them away when space is short. The C2w is the cheapest model in the range. The small 18 inch wheels accelerate up to speed fast and quickly allowing you journey to be up to speed. The Airnimal might not be the cheapest option out there but neither does it feel compromised for the sake of folding convenience with a genuinely impressive performance - you could easily use it for long rides not just short urban hops– and that why it justifies the extra cash.
