Safety First
- Helmets are mandatory on all Livermore Cycling Club (LCC) rides.
- Obey traffic laws. Riders must observe all California road rules, including stopping at stop signs, using signals, and respecting other road users.
- Ride predictably and communicate. Use clear hand signals when changing direction. Be aware of fellow cyclists and alert them if you plan to pass.
- Be prepared. Carry appropriate tools, hydration, and emergency contact information.
- Know your limits. Choose rides that match your ability and fitness level. Inform the ride leader of any medical conditions that may affect your ride.
Group Riding Etiquette
- Ride Leaders: Designated ride leaders set the pace, announce route changes, and are responsible for general group safety. Please follow their instructions.
- Respect fellow riders. Ride in a courteous and considerate manner. Be mindful of varying skill levels.
- No rider left behind. We support a welcoming atmosphere. Groups should make reasonable efforts to remain together, especially during social rides.
Membership and Conduct
