Cyclone Club Rules
Cyclone is run entirely by volunteers. We aim to make sure you have a great time: we’ll organise rides and social events. Where we can, we’ll give a choice of pace and challenge.
In return, there are a few rules we need you to follow. This is important because mountain biking is inherently risky, you have responsibility for looking after the safety of yourself and those around you:
Always wear a helmet – no helmet, no ride. You are also advised to wear gloves and glasses.
It is your responsibility to ensure that you are fit and healthy for a ride. If in doubt check with your doctor.
Ride Navigators are there solely to find the route. It is your responsibility to decide what you ride. If you’re not confident to ride an obstacle, get off and walk – no one will give you a hard time.
Give way to walkers, dogs and especially horses. Call out a warning to riders following and if necessary stop.
If you’re not happy with the pace or terrain, say so and we can make adjustments. We want everyone to enjoy their ride.
Don’t ride trails and paths closed to bikes.
Turn up on time with a working bike. It is your responsibility to ensure that your bike is suitable and in good working order.
You can have up to 3 rides for free with Cyclone to see if you like us. After that, and before you ride, you need to join. (You may need your own Greensands Trust day permit)
On road sections, ride safely and follow the highway code.
At night and in poor light, you must have suitable lights.
All members must be over 18
