SAFETY
Helmets are mandatory for all riders. Helmets will be available for purchase from SCOR. If you ride in a paceline, please announce “on your left” when passing other riders. Please ride single file and understand that you assume all liabilities and risk for riding in a paceline. No personal SAG vehicles are allowed. Headphones, Walkmans and iPods are also forbidden by law. Trikke bikes prohibited.
LAW ENFORCEMENT AND INTERSECTION CONTROL
The Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department and California Highway Patrol will be providing intersection control throughout the courses. Please follow their directions. At unmanned intersections and on the route, please obey all applicable vehicle code laws.
These roads are open to normal traffic, but are generally lightly traveled due to the rural nature of the area. Riders who violate vehicle code laws, ride unsafely or are rude, discourteous or dangerous to other riders (or to law enforcement personnel) will NOT be allowed to enter any future SCOR events and face ticketing by law enforcement personnel.
