Group Safety

To ensure a safe and coordinated ride, all participants must follow the Ride Leader’s instructions at all times.

• Never overtake the Ride Leader unless explicitly permitted.

• Stay alert for potholes, animals, sharp bends, and road/trail obstructions.

• Maintain safe spacing — avoid riding too close to others.

• Hand signals must be clearly passed down the group.

• Focus on the road ahead and remain aware of oncoming hazards.

• No music is allowed while riding in Saudi Arabia.

• Only overtake another rider when safe, and clearly communicate your intention and side of passing.

• Descend with caution — alert others vocally and visually when doing so.

• Use hand signals and vocal calls to indicate hazards and traffic.

• Ride in single file; doubles only when safe.

• Practice riding with others beforehand to build confidence and communication.

• Communicate clearly — signal hazards and speak up when moving within the group.

• If a rider suffers a puncture, alert the group so the Ride Leader can coordinate a stop.

• In case of mechanical failure, the group will stop and await support unless roadside repair is possible.

• Every rider must carry a spare inner tube.

Group safety relies on discipline, awareness, and clear communication — ride responsibly and support one another throughout.
