Here's just a few simple common sense rules we should all follow
while riding in the desert.

Take it easy in the staging area. Try not to raise dust near other riders.

If you see horseback riders, shut your engine off until the horses are a good distance away. Horses can get spooked from the sound, and buck their riders off.

Slow down when coming up to Bicyclists. Give them the time they need to find a place to get off the trail, so you can pass safely. Again, try not to dust them.

When meeting other riders coming toward you, slow down, pass on the right, and signal with your fingers how many riders are behind you.

When riding with others, if you're in the lead, give hand signals to indicate dangers ahead.

When riding with a large party, or riders of different skill levels, each person should check for the person behind them periodically and wait at any intersection of trails to ensure they follow the correct trail.

If you ride any vehicle with more than two wheels, please don't ride on singletrack trails. There are not many, and taking a bigger machine on them ruins them for the people riding two wheels.

Never chase animals.

If you take something into the desert, take it out too. Cigarette butts, candy wrappers, water bottles, ect.

Stay on trails!



If we all follow these rules, there's no reason why we can't all get along, and share the fun, and beauty of our desert lands.
