🔥 This is a team ride, not a free-for-all. Follow the rules = epic experience.
  1. 1. Morning Briefing
    • • Attend daily briefings without fail

    • • Monitor WhatsApp for live updates
    • • If it’s posted, you’re expected to know
  3. 3. Timekeeping
    • • Be ready on time, every time
    • • Delays affect everyone — don’t be that rider
    • • If you’re late, the group won’t wait
  4. 4. Never Ride Alone
    • • Always ride in pairs minimum
    • • If you’re alone, fix it immediately
  5. 5. Mindset
    • • It’s the journey, not the destination
    • • Don’t rush — you’ll miss the experience
