• Be sure to have your bike registered with the
City of Fort Lauderdale. Call 954-828-6400 for
registration times. You may have to leave a
message for a call back.

• Dress for the ride. Bright clothing to alert motorists helps.
Use eye-glasses including sunglasses and appropriate bike
helmet or head cover.

We ride easy. The “pro” bikers often speed by us on the
Bayview Drive Bike Path. So, as “locals”, we take our
“rights” nice and easy like the slower “local” transit buses
do, stopping often. Better safe than sorry. We hope your
ride is enjoyable. Please feel free to respond to this article
and report your biking experiences on “Next Door”, the
local community blog which includes the Landings
available on your I-Phone as a free app.

See you on the bike path!
