A Word About Safety
Riders are required to wear ANSI or SNELL approved helmets, ride in
accordance with State of Colorado traffic laws, ride single file,
and stay to the right side of the road. Colorado State Patrol and
local officials will issue citations for failure to do so. Colorado
weather changes quickly, and this course should be hot.
Participants must wear rider identification.
