Code of Conduct

It is the goal of the RAC, in collaboration with each Ride Across California participant and volunteer, to provide a healthy, safe, secure and enjoyable environment for all.  Participants and Volunteers are expected to model our core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility at all times.

The RAC is a ride, not a race.

All riders agree to meet the following RAC Expectations:

• Ride predictably, not competitively

• Ride as an example for all 5th graders

• Wear helmets

• Wear name tags front and back

• Wear yellow fluorescent vests or jerseys

• No cell phone use while riding

• No smartphones on 5th graders’ handlebars

• Do not pass the leader

• Follow the Rules of The Road:

  • Single file at all times; no overlapping tires

  • Stop individually at all stop signs and traffic lights

  • Use hand signals and communicate

• Respect the Attendance Requirements

• Respect volunteers and communities

• Rules are not up for discussion
