Capital Brewery E-Bike Riders

The Capital Brewery Bike Club wants ALL riders to practice safe riding. You must be 21 or over to participate in Club Rides and Activities.

HELMET USE IS MANDATORY! ALL riders must follow the 'rules of the road' - including but not limited to:

• Ride 2 Abreast (max) only when appropriate.
• Ride at least three feet from the curb or parked vehicles or debris in curb area and in a straight line.
• Always ride in the same direction as traffic.
• Obey all traffic laws and WI Bicycle Laws.
• Be predictable and use signals! Dress in bright clothing and use lights when necessary. Let other users know where you intend to go and maintain a safe course.
