Saturdays rides start at the Landing and Sundays at Starbucks

This week’s Safety Message:
Cycling Safety Reminder: Avoiding Collisions and Close Calls with Cars Crashes with cars are rare,
but close calls happen often and are stressful for both cyclists and drivers. Common areas of concern include:

• Too-close passes – often from misjudged space.

• Unsafe overtakes – drivers underestimating group speed.

• Right hooks – vehicles turning right across the group’s path.

• Left crosses – oncoming cars turning left in front of the group.

• Passing as we turn left – motorists trying to overtake during our left turns.

Awareness of these situations helps us all stay safer and more predictable on the road.
Please watch this 4 min video to learn how to minimize stressful outcomes and crashes.

When riding with us, you will:

· Use helmets and bike lanes! Call out hazards and ride predictably.

· Avoid bunching up; don’t overlap wheels.

· Keep a prudent distance and ride single file on narrow roads.

· Ensure your bike is in good working order.

· Descend carefully!

· Pass slower riders on the left and signal when changing lines.

· Respect traffic laws and the rights of motor vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians.

· If the weather is inclement, we will cancel ALL rides.
