- DO NOT PUT YOURSELF IN DANGER TRYING TO HELP OTHERS.
- If there is a “bike down” situation, let those who know what to do, “do it” and do not crowd them.
- TEC will arrange traffic control around the site (where applicable).
- Only riders designated by TEC to remain at the scene.
- Other riders and second TEC to move on and join up with the pack.
- Park your bikes off the road.
- Do not try and move the fallen bike unless safe.
- TEC to ensure an ambulance or medical assistance has been arranged/called.
- Do not remove the fallen riders/pillion helmet.
- Ensure no “valuables” are left at the scene.
- Ensure contact is made with another rider still in the ride pack to appraise them of the events - preferably the RL or RC or someone TEC knows has phone access through their onboard communications.
- If emergency services are not required, then TEC will remain until the rider/bike can be moved.
- Update the designated contact point, that is still with the ride group, of any situation changes and any delays in re-joining the group.
