Stay Cool with RTC Bike Share  

Summer is upon us as we enter the hottest months here in Las Vegas. As temperatures rise, it’s essential to stay cool and healthy while enjoying the summer’s events and activities. Here are some tips to create that balance while using RTC Bike Share this summer!  

Staying Cool  

Keeping cool in the heat can be challenging. Staying hydrated is crucial, so always carry a water bottle with you. The more you sweat, the more you should drink!  

You can also take a moment in the shade and don’t be afraid to take breaks! Many of our stations are located near local businesses and parks where you can enjoy the shade or take a breather inside with some AC. This will help prevent heat-related illnesses and regulate your temperature to avoid heat stroke. Staying cool is key to enjoying your ride and keeping your energy up.  

 

Staying hydrated isn’t the only thing to consider while riding. Whether you’re walking, riding a bike, or running while exploring our city, it’s important to maintain a healthy temperature. Remember to stay focused on your surroundings and wear appropriate clothing designed to keep your cool. This way, you can safely enjoy the scenic views and your ride.  

Staying Upbeat  

Staying in good spirits during the summer is important! Staying inside too long can drain your energy, but going outside at the right time of day can keep your mind and body alive and thriving. RTC Bike Share is a great way to get out and make the most of your outdoor time. Planning your ride for a good time of day and choosing your route wisely will help you optimize your early morning or late evening rides. Plan a stop to relax, sip on a cool drink, and stretch by visiting local businesses along the way.  

Keeping It Simple  

Time and energy are valuable during the summer days, and RTC Bike Share makes things easy for you! The RTC Bike Share app has many great features to help you plan your route, find the nearest station, and access important information at your fingertips.
