Proper Hand Signals

Lifting a Downed Bike

Riding as safely as possible, whether in a group or individually, is the number 1 concern of the KMC Chapter of H.O.G.

Via monthly meeting presentations and Newsletter articles, the KMC Saftey Officers (Dewey Hemba and Mike Nolan) provide our members with valuable information to help us all ride safe. Even if you've been riding for some time, there's always something new to learn.

KMC group rides are always ridden in "Staggered fomation" as illustrated below.. Please keep this in mind. Once you are settled in the left or right third of the lane - NEVER switch to the other side. If the rider directly ahead of you drops out of the group, simply pull up to his spot to maintain the staggerd formation.

To the left is a list of links that will provide you with important and useful information related to safe bike riding.
