Ride Specific Rules
Each event is unique in some form or another. Below are the Bahrain-Merida Fun Ride specific rules.
- This is a fun ride, not a race. You are required to have fun.
- You must wear a helmet. Unless you're riding your tricycle, of course!
- Average Group Speed: 28km/h. That's right, the Pros, won't even be pedaling.
- Drafting is legal. Of course it's legal, it wouldn't be a fun ride otherwise.
- Treat all participants, marshals, volunteers and spectators with respect and courtesy.
- For safety reasons, headphones are not permitted. Seriously, though, who would want headphones when you ride besides the pros?
