Texting, Snapping, Vlogging on the Road

Your friend answered three easy questions about your habits as a driver, passenger, pedestrian, or cyclist. Now they want to give you three clutch tips for staying safe on the road! Read this lil’ personal guide on avoiding snapping, texting, or vlogging while riding your bike.

1. Snap or text before you leave.

Set aside a few minutes to take care of things before you hit the road. More focus means better content...and a better chance of avoiding a costly typo. Then while riding you can focus on, ya know, riding.

2. Pull over!

If you have to respond to something urgent, find a safe, out-of-the-way place with no traffic or pedestrians to pull over and respond. Everyone will thank you.

3) Make airplane mode bike mode.

Pretend like you’re on a plane and go into airplane mode before you leave the runway -- er, driveway. Heck, even pack yourself some lil’ pretzels to make the whole thing feel more real. Neck pillow optional.
