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

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 :-)


What!? Even my shoes have a warning sticker about use on slippery
surfaces! Shocking.
