Be Considerate
- Ride only where permitted.
- Be considerate of others on the trail, and keep to the right.
- Always yield to uphill traffic. Such riders may have trouble starting after stopping.
- Announce your intention before passing.
- Slow down when someone is passing you.
- If you meet bikers, horses, and hikers coming from the opposite direction, slow down, pull over, and yield the right-of-way.
- If you stop to talk to other trail users, be courteous and remove your helmet. A helmet masks your features and can be intimidating.
- Be safe and considerate when you stop along the trail. Never stop side-by-side, in the middle of the trail, at the crest of a hill, or around a corner on the trail. Also never block an intersection. Remember to shut off your engine.
- Leave gates as you find them.
- Report downed trees and trail maintenance needs to land managers.
- Report illegal riding.
- Carry out what you carry in.
