Rider Guidance & Safety Directives

Essential Pre-Ride Safety Guidelines

Every rider is accountable for collective peloton safety. Review our core road rules before rolling out with the club.

All riders must wear a certified, undamaged helmet properly buckled at all times while straddling the bicycle. Conduct the ABC Quick Check (Air, Brakes, Chain & Cranks) before arriving. Front high-output daylight running lights and rear flashing red beacons are strongly encouraged on all rural Skagit county shoulders.
