If you are going to be late, give them a call. This way they will know when to worry if you are not back by a certain time. When traveling down the trail please use the traffic laws observed when driving. Stay to the right hand side unless you are passing someone who is slower than pond water. Keep your head up and inform those who you are passing in order to insure your safety and theirs.
Approach turns in anticipation of riders around the bend.
Give verbal warning and use caution when overtaking other trail users. Avoid riding on muddy trails. If a portion of a trail is muddy, remain on the center track. Don't cause further damage by riding on surrounding vegetation. Dismount and walk if necessary.
