Rider Safety & Health
Like other recreational bicycle events, you will be sharing the road with vehicle traffic. We do not recommend this ride for children under 16. Helmets are required while biking, and riders must follow all traffic laws and group riding safety practices - such as
- yielding the right of way at intersections,
- sharing the road with vehicles and other riders
- riding single file when traffic approaches, and
- ringing a bell or saying "hi" or "on your left" when passing another riders
Please stay home if you feel sick.
Wash your hands or use hand sanitizer at rest stops before touching food or eating.
SAG & Mechanical Support
Make sure your bike is tuned up and in good condition before the ride. Bike mechanics will be at the check-in at Stanwood Middle School and at the Cama Beach rest stop. They may be able to help with minor repairs. Thanks to Arlington Velosport and Sharing Wheels Community Bike Shop.
SAG Support: Volunteer SAG drivers will be roaming the routes to help with flats or transport riders if needed. Give them a "thumbs up" if you are OK. We will post a SAG coordinator number on the day of the ride - you may call to request assistance. Please be patient as SAG drivers have a lot of rural roads to drive safely.
Call 911 for emergencies.
Ham radio volunteers will be stationed at each of our food stops to facilitate communications.
