Safety Reminders

Whether you’re new to our group or a seasoned rider, here are reminders of the BIG 3 Safety Tips when riding with Pedals and Pints.

  • Ride no more than 2 wide. And leave room for other riders and cars pass safely.
  • STAY IN YOUR LANE – can’t stress this one enough. We see people passing in the wrong lane on crests of hills and around bends way too often.
  • Communicate. Yell “Car back” to let riders know a car is approaching from behind, “Car up” when a car is approaching from a side street or head on”, “Passing on left”…when you’re passing. See an upcoming pothole or other danger? Point and say what it is.
