answer:You’re technically only allowed in the right hand lane (but you’re allowed anywhere in the right lane), you are required to have brakes, and lights on the front and back if you’re riding at night. Use your hand signals, and otherwise act like a car. Besides that, just don’t be a dick. The cars will be dicks, for some reason they think you belong on the sidewalk even though that’s illegal. But High Street is generally pretty safe for bikes, and it’s getting better! Columbus also has Monday Night Ride! Meet at the Wexner Center at 10 pm on Monday and ride with the group until you get tired and go home. My friend says “bring ****”. Awesome question!
