Safety Spotlight -

Tire Pressure

Having the correct tire pressure is crucial for a smooth ride. Higher air pressure lets your tires roll easier and faster. Check your tires for the recommended pressure. It's usually printed on the tire near the rim as a range. Keep in mind that temperature may affect your tire pressure as well. Don't forget to check your tire pressure before

each ride.
