Coast cyclists reminded to ride safely during National Bike Safety Month

May is National Bike Safety Month. With more people hitting the roads and trails along the Coast, local bike experts are reminding riders to stay alert and protected.

Duncan Perkins, owner of Tri Hard Sports and Biloxi Bicycle Works, says both riders and drivers play a role in keeping roads safe.

He recommends using your lights and wearing a helmet.

Perkins also mentions following bike laws and riding in designated bike lanes when available.

With more people expected to be outside this spring and summer, local experts hope Bike Safety Months serves as a reminder for everyone to share the road responsibly.
