Learning about bike safety while having fun

The Port Washington Police Department held its annual Bike Rodeo Wednesday, June 25, drawing a crowd to the parking lot at Lincoln Elementary School. The event included an obstacle course, BMX show, helmet fittings and inspection area.

A rider seemed to fly on his bike during the BMX show. Crossing guard Julie Weinberger fitted Andrew Patterson, 5, with a bike helmet.      Photos by Sam Arendt
