**Ride Rules for Safety, Inclusion, and Minimal Confusion:**

1. **Ride Your Own Ride:** Your participation indicates that you understand and accept full responsibility for your own safety, well-being, passengers, and property. You also confirm that you carry insurance as required by Texas law and possess a valid motorcycle license.
2. **Use Your Bright Lights:** Please ride with your **high beams on**, except for the rider immediately behind the leader. Carry emergency contact information.
3. **Gear Up for Safety:** Follow **ATGATT (All The Gear, All The Time)**—this includes a **helmet, jacket, riding pants (preferably armored), over-the-ankle boots, and gloves**.
4. **Start with a Full Tank:** Ensure your gas tank is **full** before departure. Plan to cover **125 miles between gas stops**, and never pass up an opportunity to refuel when we stop.
5. **No Stunting:** This is **not** a ride for stunts—**no wheelies, stoppies, or reckless maneuvers** of any kind.
6. **Breaking Off? Let Someone Know:** If you decide to leave the group, please **wave at someone** so we know it was intentional.
7. **Watch Out for Fellow Riders:** Keep an eye on the rider behind you. If you **lose sight of them**, turn around and check what happened. Let’s **not leave anyone behind**.
8. **Waiting at Turns:** At any point where a turn signal is required, we will **wait until the last rider (Sweep Rider) makes the turn** before continuing.
9. **Check Your Tire Pressure:** Before leaving home, **check your cold tire pressure**. If checking when warm, **add 4 lbs.** to compensate.

Looking forward to a **fun and safe ride!**
