Terrain & trail conditions - can vary greatly throughout a ride from wide, open fields to steep, narrow gullies. It is important to be aware of your surroundings & those around you.

​

Walkers and Horses riders – we are likely to encounter other users on the trails. Whoever is at the front should slow down & warn the rest of the group. We should also communicate our presence to the other trail users & look for a safe place to pass.

​

Obstacles – warn other riders such as fallen or low branches, brambles, animals, etc.

​

Gates – the front rider should hold it open for the rest of the group & be sure to close it behind them.

Mechanical/Puncture Issues – inform the group. We will always wait for you & help out if possible.
