(From the City of Findlay)

The City of Findlay Mayor’s Office and Findlay Police Department , in collaboration with local businesses Further Bikes @furtherbikes and GT Wheels, have donated nine bicycles to Findlay High School. The bikes, originally forfeited property stored by the Findlay Police Department, were refurbished and safety-checked by the partnering cycleries to ensure they are in excellent working condition.

In addition to the city’s contribution, the University of Findlay donated four more bicycles, bringing the total number to thirteen. The initiative aims to support students in need of reliable transportation and will be distributed by Findlay High School. The City of Findlay recognizes the challenges that the lack of bussing presents for students and families. We remain committed to supporting Findlay City Schools and working collaboratively to find solutions that benefit our students and the broader community.

The City of Findlay would like to remind the community of the following cycling safety tips:

– Wear a properly fitted helmet.
– Ride on the right side of the road in the same direction as traffic or use a sidewalk if available.
– Obey all traffic signs and signals.
– Use designated bicycle lanes when available.
– Use hand signals when turning or stopping.
– Wear bright or reflective clothing, especially in the early mornings or evening hours.
