MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOKD. OREGON THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1963 .D 11 When Giving Notning Driijmens a boy s eyes like seeing a bicycle under the Christmas tree. The gleam of bright new paint, the shine of metal spokes and the flash of handle bars are reflected in his eyes. As a parent you should make surf that the bike that you buy him has all the equipment that he needs not the flashy acces sories that impress the kid next door, but the basic safety equip ment required for safe bicy cling. He also needs to be told or reminded about bike riding rules. One way to do this is to see that the child participates in a national safety program being conducted by the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Their posts throughout the country are con ducting this program in con junction with the National Safe ty Council. The local VFW posts distributed free reflective tape to some four million youngsters in 1983 for use on their bicycles. In addition, the VFW is con tinuing a program to check the brakes, lights, handle bars, and tires of individual bicycles to make sure they are safe. They also check the ability of each New Bicycle Also Give Safety Rules youngster to handle his own DiKe. Basic Rules Your child can have many hours of safe fun on his bike if he will just reuiember these basic rules. Obey traffic laws, signs and signals. A good bike rider always stays on the right and rides with traffic. Always ride single file and in a straight line, never zig zag. Night riding is always dan gerous and should be avoided. If the child has to ride at night, for some reason, be sure that the hike is equipped with light, re flector, reflective tape and see that the child wears light-colored clothing. Conduct periodic safety checks on the bike. Seats should be tight; feet must reach the pedals easily; reflectors should be visible from at least 300 feet away; brakes should stop fast; the chain shouldn't be too tight; worn-out pedals and handle grips should be replaced; handle bars should be in comfortable - - w .
