Learn to Be a Better Cyclist

General Cycling Etiquette

  1. The trail is shared, and nature belongs to everyone. Be considerate of all fellow travelers.

  4. Remember your responsibility. Don’t litter or damage trees and plants.
  5. Proper speed ensures safety. Slow down when overtaking and at intersections, and use a bell or sound signals.
  6. Everyone has a duty to assist the injured. If necessary, use the emergency app or call for help.

  • Consider Weather Conditions: Weather in the fells can change rapidly, so be prepared with appropriate clothing.
  • Carry Water: Staying hydrated is crucial, especially on long rides.
