Our guides carry two-way radios and cellular phones for your safety. Ride on Bicycles requires that all participants wear a helmet that meets the requirement of protecting against serious head injury (SNELL, ANSI OR ASTM approved). You must also bring a well tuned and maintained bicycle to the departure area. It is also prudent to bring along a spare bicycle tube; in the event of a flat tire, a guide will install it for you. Participant limit 15; no one under 18 permitted. A signed waiver must be submitted before the ride begins.
