Rules of the Trail:
- Rule #1 - You are responsible for the rider behind you. If they get lost it is YOUR fault. At every intersection, STOP and wait until riders behind you acknowledges the turn, and then you may continue.
- Rule #2 - Use hand singles for oncoming traffic. Ex. Raise your hand with all 5 fingers up means 5 or more riders behind you. Raise hand with 2 fingers up means 2 riders are behind you. Raise hand with a fist means trail is clear.
- Follow the WindRock Trail Rules.
- Stay on the trail.
- Be respectful to all riders.
- Do not litter. Pack it in pack it out.
- This is not a drinking trip. We plan to ride.
- Helmets are recommended. Required for under 18.
Splitting into multiply units:
Because of the difficulty managing a large group we may split the groups into smaller units. Each unit will need a leader. The only objective of the unit leader is to keep the unit together. The unit leader should identify all riders and know how many there are. The unit leader maintains a fair pace that is good for all riders of the unit. The unit leader should account for all of unit riders every chance they get to insure no one gets lost or left behind. The unit leader does not have to be the first rider, however should not be less than 1/2 ways back.
