meetup at Tamale House East ride bikes.
Social Cycling Austin rides AS traffic and NOT AGAINST it. We stop at red lights, yield the right of way and let cars pass as best we can. We don't block intersections and try to stay in one lane while riding. We are nice to both our fellow riders and the other traffic on the road. Listen for call-outs like "car up", "stopping" or "left/right turn", and echo them for riders ahead and behind you. Please listen to the volunteers helping to lead the ride, they are some nice folks and have your best interest in mind. If you have any questions about the rules, please review http://bicycleaustin.info/laws
REMINDER: The goal has always been to create a safe environment for all riders, but we cannot control, nor do we desire to, every rider's behavior. We promote personal responsibility, and it is each rider's responsibility to take care of themselves, and if they choose to ride with us, then they accept those risks inherent in riding a bicycle with a large group of other people riding bicycles.
