I saw a new version of the safety sticker on a kid's bike:

====================
WARNING!
Do not ride bikes
at night! Do not ride
bikes when it's wet
outside! Always ride
with an ANSI, Snell,
or ASTM approved
helmet! do not stunt
or jump with this
bicycle. Read and
obey your Owner's
Manual!
=====================

"Do not ride when it's wet outside" is new to me. Apparently puddles are
now deadly.

I'm curious: Does this sort of nonsense get stuck on bikes in Europe?


I'm glad I got my childhood out of the way early on. That sticker just
prohibited almost all of my early cycling activities.

Good thing they didn't mention riding on snow and ice :-)
