TRIP NOTES:

• Gas stops approx. every (90) miles or as needed.
• As always, start the ride with a FULL gas tank, ride your own ride, make new friends have fun!!

SAFETY NOTES: Ride your ride.

• Be safe and be aware of your fellow riders. In town try to stay close or side by side if possible.
• Do not run stop signs or red lights. In the country or at speed ride staggered and keep a safe distance but not too far apart.
• *Please remember to BE THE MARKER at all turning points (including driveways) so that all of the riders behind you don't get behind.
• We use the CARDO for group communication. Please refrain from excessive talk when we are in a high traffic areas. :)
