hand signals

Written By Michael Wood

Signs not shown in Illustration

  • Police Ahead: Open left hand tapping top of head

  • Block Needed: Usually the Road Captain kicks with leg on which side he wants the Blocker to block

  • Use of turn signals: Road Captain initiates turn signal lights and raises left hand, everyone replicates down the line. When the lane is blocked and cleared by either the Blocker or Tail Gunner, the Road Captain will signal by hand to take the lane/turn when the entire lane is clear and will take it first.  The group shall move as a complete unit, in succession, with each rider ensuring their path is clear.     All turn signals are to be turned off after the lane change/turn is complete.
