What would happen if a non-helmeted rider asked to join in the old fashioned fun? Would you or your pals tell him to scram? Would the club insurance be cancelled if you guys did not comply with the insurance company/bike club edict?
In August, a member showed up for the Tuesday AM ride with a friend who didn't have a helmet. Our ride leader asked him not to ride with the group because of the helmet required rule. Both riders took off on their own and the group continued with the ride. He accepted the rule and chose to comply.
