When leading a spirited group, this one stands out. So I've made it a point to ask the other riders to think of the day's ride as a cool-down lap. It's when you can breathe and take the glory of the day in, cruising back safely to your pit/home.

Although I've been riding with the BARF North Coast Contingency for 3 years, I'm new to riding group BARF rides, so, thank you for having these words of wisdom and tips to keeping it safe and fun for all.

This years Behind the Redwood Curtain Rally was awesome good rollicking fun, but also safe and well organized, now I see why.

Reading the post about ride safety and what to do after an accident leads me to think we should have at least 2 of our riding group get some training. Anyone know where we can get some good trauma and cpr training, especially if they have a motorcycle emphasis?
