Learn why wearing a helmet is the most important thing you can do to protect your head when riding a bike. This short video shows how to choose a safety‑certified helmet, how to make sure it fits properly, and how to adjust the straps so it stays in place. You’ll also learn when it’s time to replace a helmet to keep riding safely.

This video is part of Cycle Safe, a program created by the ELMO ASRTS Committee and inspired by London Cycle Link’s Ride to Thrive program. It’s designed to help children learn how to ride more safely. While it offers helpful guidance, it’s not a substitute for hands-on instruction from a certified CanBike trainer.
