What to Bring while Bicycling

As with anytime you leave your home it’s always good practice to have identification, a cell phone, and cash.

Bike Lock
Your standard equipment should include a good lock—you’ll need it if you are going to leave your bike unattended for even a very short amount of time. For the best security, use a cable lock to loop through your seat and a U-lock to link the bike frame and front wheel to the bike rack. A heavy chain lock can do all three, but keep in mind they can be heavy to carry.

Only bring the tools for the work you know how to do.

You will also want to bring some water and a snack if you are doing a longer ride.
