Question 4 of 6

Tingling and numbness in your feet can indicate:
- Shoes that are too narrow or tight
- Shoes that are too loose or big
- It’s time to wash your socks

Many cyclists deal with tingling or numbness in their feet. The culprit is often shoes that are too narrow or tight. As we are talking about feet, cleat position and shoe orthotics (inserts) can be of benefit depending on your foot’s shape.

Question 5 of 6

5. Question
Staying visible at night is especially important, so make sure to incorporate:
- A flaming torch
- Reflectors on clothing and helmet, a front light and rear flashing light
- A helmet-mounted disco ball
- All-black clothing
Correct

In northern states like Minnesota and Wisconsin, often daylight is at a premium. If you need to bike at night, invest in a good front light and flashing rear-mounted light. Reflective clothing is a major plus. With so many distracted drivers, you can use all the visibility you can get. The disco ball, however, may be a little much.
