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?


Crap, I better move. Europe is the killing fields -- don't use it as a yardstick for what is or is not safe. https://nltimes.nl/2016/04/12/nether...u-hurt-traffic Remember Thalidomide? That was a European thing. QED.

I've actually known people who died. It was tragic and could have been avoided had they lived.
