WANNABEES CYCLING ETIQUETTEBe predictable - ride in a consistent manner. Do not swerve or change rate of travel unexpectedly.
Indicate - learn accepted cycling hand signals and use them.
Call out hazards - the rider in front is responsible for those following.
Keep an even pace - do not brake or slow unexpectedly, be aware that there is a compounding effect to those following. Look ahead at what is happening on the road and anticipate the moves of the cyclists ahead of you.
Keep adequate distance - avoid overlapping wheels. If your front wheel touches the rear wheel of the rider in front of you, you will fall. Be defensive to stay safe.
Obey the rules of the road – conduct one's self with the same consideration as one would expect from any other road user, particularly motorists. Aggressive behaviour and gestures by cyclists will alienate motorists and could lead to endangering other cyclists.
