School is back in session! The Iowa City Police Department wants everyone to have a safe and happy school year. The best way to do that is to follow these tips for getting to and from school:

The Metropolitan Planning Organization of Johnson County has a wealth of information for all cyclists, including trail maps, Bicycling Rules of the Road in multiple languages and a series of 30 to 60 second bicycle education and safety videos called "Bike Shorts." You can view all of those resources here.

Need a helmet? The Iowa City Parks and Recreation Department offers bike helmets to kids and adults for $12. Stop by the Robert A. Lee Community Recreation Center, 220 S. Gilbert St., and customer service would be happy to help you find the right style, fit and color.
