Ride Safely

• Bike helmets are required. NO EXCEPTIONS.
• Ride single file, except when passing.
• Alert other riders when passing.
• Follow Colorado traffic laws.
• Share the path with other users.
• Stay alert. Always be aware of traffic, road/trail conditions, and other riders.
• Do NOT stop near the Dillon Dam Glory Hole.
• When provided, follow directions of course marshals (in orange vests).
• Avoid biking behind the diagonal-parked cars on Main St. – drivers have a poor view of traffic as they back out. Granite St. (one block south) is a safer alternative if you need to go east through town.
