HELMETS – Are most definitely required. Only those with brains will wear them.

RULES OF THE ROAD – Obey them! Not much has changed in the twenty four years of this event, we have a good thing going in Plumas County, drivers are courteous and cyclists are not considered “a problem” by law enforcement or local motorists…We’d like to keep it that way! We insist that you obey all stop signs and give appropriate hand signals when turning. Ride as far to the right as is practicable and watch for oncoming cars and trucks illegally passing in your lane. “Sag Vehicle" volunteers will be monitoring the ride if someone needs a lift, minor bike repairs or water. Route will be clearly marked on the asphalt and road signs. Detailed map included at check-in.
