Bike riding is a great way to get around and enjoy the outdoors, but sometimes mistakes happen, like getting a citation. It’s all part of the learning process of being a biker.

These experiences teach you to be more aware and cautious. You can avoid future citations by following traffic rules and being aware of your surroundings.

When I first received my citation, I stopped riding bicycles. It made me feel bad, and I did not want to get into trouble again.

However, learning from these mistakes makes you a better, more responsible rider, ensuring that your biking adventures are both safe and enjoyable. With the help of Bicycling Monterey, I am now more aware of the dos and don’ts.
