Etiquette
- None of the rides are races – the aim is to keep the ride together.
- Please observe the rules of the road at all times, i.e. no red light jumping, pavement riding, undertaking large vehicles, etc.
- Ride in pairs where ever possible, and safe to do so.
- Don’t ride more than two abreast and keep to the left unless going around obstructions.
- Use hand signals to point out obstructions, pot holes and changes of direction. Only take your hands off the bar if you are confident doing so.
- Only ride in single file if a queue of vehicles has built up behind the ride. The ride leader will usually decide when this happens.
- Once you are on the front do not increase pace so others drop behind at the back.
- If you find the pace too slow and wish to ride on your own, inform the ride leader.
- If you have a mechanical issue please make it known to the group. Either ride will wait for mechanical issues.
- Groups should be kept to a manageable size. If there are too many people for two rides these should be split into smaller groups.
