Know the plan before the track

Before departure
Six things every rider should know
- Where and when the muster happens
- Who is leading and sweeping
- Expected pace and technical level
- Required machine range and gear
- Turnaround and regroup rules
- Weather or condition cancellation trigger
Ghostline ride rule
