I always make sure to wear a helmet. The only thing is, I ride to work every day and by the time I get there, my head is all sweaty, my bangs are wet, and my hair is destroyed. (The fact that it is typically over 80 degrees doesn't help either). Normally this wouldn't matter to me, but I have to look presentable for the customers where I work. Any tips on keeping your head cool and your hair intact?


Answer
Buy a better helmet - one with better ventilation!

How do you turn left if you're riding in the bike lane?




:Sheila:


I don't ride a bike around because I feel it is dangerous. (Most places in my area do not have bike lanes.) What are the rules of bike lanes?


Answer
I've found that the bike lanes are nice when you're in them, but taking a left turn is a bit tricky. I just slow way down and keep looking behind me for an opening and as soon as there is one, I zoom over to the farthest left lane, stick out my arm and take a left.

Where I live the bike lanes are scattered and not very fluid. I generally try to ride on the side streets and trails, but at some point, I have to get on the main thorough ways. I should say that I don't ride my bike in major traffic like some people do, it's too risky. My town just had a horrible occurrence where a woman ran right over a group of cyclist in daylight. It was very sad.

As for the rules, the bike lane is there so the bikes have a good amount of space and a safe area to ride in. The rules are the rules that your local city/county has made for bicycling. For example, some places require a light at night or require a helmet. I know that when I read the book years and years ago, it said to ride your bike towards oncoming traffic so that they can see you, but I'm pretty sure that has changed.
