General Safety Rules (More
specifics and details at the ride):
1. Red tail lights required at all
times, night or day.
2. If you see a hazard, say it out
loud. Point if you can.
3. Call out all braking maneuvers
and direction changes. Use hand signals if you can.
4. Absolutely no headphones,
in-the-ear buds or excessively loud speakers. Rider communication is a safety
issue.
5. No using aero (TT) bars at any
time while in a pace line.
6. Never run a red light or blow
through a stop sign. If multiple lights are necessary, so be it.
Wait for the rest of the group
