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. We are nice to both our fellow riders and the other traffic on the road. Please listen to the volunteers helping to lead the ride. They are some nice folks and have your best interest in mind. We ride these streets every single week and thus far we’ve managed to keep local law enforcement at bay by abiding by these rules. Let’s keep it that way! Please make sure to clean up your trash when at park stops and elsewhere. Anytime we end up on the Montopolis Bridge or one of the other pedestrian bridges, we need to be sure there is a clear path for other users to get through.
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.
If you have any questions about the rules of the road, see:
