Rally Ride Safety Items: MUST READ

Group-riding is an opportunity to share the open road and wonderful scenery with other like-minded people of KawaNOW.

But like most motorcycle experiences, this one is best enjoyed by following a few simple guidelines that keep everyone safe; while providing a memorable experience for all.

It is recommended that you read the information provided on the following sites so you become familiar with the group-riding-rules, and etiquette.

Please pay particular attention to the Harley Davidson's Group-ride Etiquette; and the MSF's hand-signal sheet. It will be imperative that each rider have a good understanding of these rules to help have a safe and enjoyable experience for all attending.

So... please review the three links listed below so that you are prepared for the ride.

Thank you for helping by doing your part.

Sincerely, Greg Wilson

American Motorcycle Association:
This is a link to a 10-minute video by the AMA on You Tube on group riding techniques and safety. It is a great video that is recommended for all riders to review well prior to the rally.
