w the manual are: — To ride only on a bicycle seat

— Attach no bicycle to a moving vehicle. — Ride as close to the right side of the street or roadway as possible. — Do not ride more than two abreast except on bicycle paths — Where there are bicycle paths, the paths are to be used and not the roadways — Packages or other items are not to be carried on bicycles unless at least one hand is on the handlebars — A bicycle must have a bell or audible signal. — Front white lamp and rear reflector are required for use of bicycles at night The lamp is to be in operation one;half hour after sunset and until one-half hour before sunrise. — Workable brakes must be on a bicycle in use The bicycle’s brakes are good if at a rate of 15 miles per hour they stop the bike in 30 to 35 feet I Maintenance of the bicycle is also important for a safe ride. "Consumer Reports" has suggested procedures to keep bicycles in good working condition: — Disassemble, clean and repack important bearings approximately 500 miles. — Remove and clean the chain then spray with a lubricate twice yearly. — Check brakes periodically and tighten when needed. — To prolong tire life, inflate to proper poundage. — With ten-speed bikes, lubricate the gears, rear wheel bearings. — One to two squirts of light machine oil in the rear hub hole per month also helps lubricate 10speed bikes. — Pedal bearings of a bike should be oiled monthly. Thefts have become an increasing problem with 10-speeds being stolen and resold often in other areas of the same state. To prevent a theft run a long case hardened chain through both wheels and frame, then run chain around a fixed, immovable object Lock the ends of the chain with a tough pad lock. Also record the bike’s serial number which should be included with the description given to police, if the bike is stolen COUNCIL FORMED Ferdinand I formed a council of military affairs for the German territories of the House of Hapsburg on Nov. 17, 1556.
