Bicycle helmets reduce the risk of head and brain injuries in the event of a crash. All bicyclists, regardless of age, can help protect themselves by wearing properly fitted bicycle helmets every time they ride.  Helmets should fit properly and be: well maintained, age appropriate, appropriately certified for use, and worn consistently and correctly.

 

SBM offers free helmet fitting during a variety of events and by appointment only at our stations.  For more information on how to properly fit a bike helmet, visit this page from the National Highway Transportation and Safety Administration: https://www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/8019_fitting-a-helmet.pdf.
