Respect the ride leaders. Our ride goals are that we will all get a good workout, enjoy each other’s company, and arrive at our destination safely. Our rides always start with a safety briefing, and we have one leaders who account for our riders to ensure we have everyone, and who “manages” the ride to ensure we are riding safely. Please support the efforts of the leader to ensure a safe and enjoyable ride for everyone. Do not ride through red lights and stop signs. Running through a red light by yourself puts you at risk. Running them while you are pulling the paceline puts everyone at risk, increased because the riders behind you may not have seen the light changing . Let's avoid Jackrabbit Starts. Some of us are much stronger and faster than others. Please wait for everyone to make it through the stoplight, or other point where we've paused and for the signal from the leader before starting out. Crossing intersections. When in the front of the peloton please use caution going through lights and be cognizant that there could be 20 to 30 riders behind you and that they will need extra time to clear the intersection. If you are at the front of the peloton and approaching a light and it turns yellow please don't try and beat the light. You might be inadvertently drawing people behind you into a very dangerous situation. Do Not Cross the Yellow Line Regardless of whether the lane appears clear or not. Doing so puts you into the path of oncoming cars, placing you and the rest of the group at risk.
