Free Bike HelmetFree: All time

New York City’s Department of Transportation (DOT) wants bike riders to wear helmets. They go as far as fitting and giving away the official NYC bicycle helmet as events throughout the city. Call 311 to schedule a fitting or check out their updated calendar for upcoming helmet fitting sessions. In order to receive a helmet, you must: be present, learn how to preperly fit and wear a helmet, and sign a waiver (a parent or legal guardian must sign for children under 18).
