- This contact is preferably the RL or RC or someone TEC knows has phone access through their onboard communications.
- Both TEC’s travel at the rear of the ride pack.
- At least one TEC will wear an orange high visibility vest.
- Prior to the ride group taking off from any location the TEC will ride past all members ensuring every rider is ready and then advise the RL to move off.
- TEC falls back to the rear of the pack.
- TEC will check the safety/wellbeing of any rider that stops unexpectedly during the ride.
- The rider in front of the TEC will keep TEC headlights in their rear-view mirror in case TEC has to stop or has an issue.
- The TEC will liaise with the RC re this matter before each ride.
