Takeaways Be deliberate with your movements during group rides to ensure safety and avoid accidents. Follow proper snot rocket etiquette to avoid hitting other riders. When approaching a stoplight, consider holding your place behind the cars instead of pushing up and causing them to pass you again. Use clear and concise commands during group rides, and avoid using headphones. Avoid over-exaggerating hand motions and yelling during group rides. Take responsibility for the safety of the group and trust your fellow riders. Be deliberate when pointing out obstacles and always be aware of the line of the rider next to you. Smaller group sizes are preferable for a more controlled and predictable ride. Avoid confrontations with drivers and represent cyclists in a positive manner.
