SAFETY

 

While knowing the Right-of-Way rules and using common sense works most of the time, accidents still occur.  CIYC cannot guarantee your safety, whether you follow these guidelines and Right-of- Way rules or not . YOU MUST BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF

* It is essential that you wear a helmet on your head, goggles on your eyes, ice-creepers on your feet, ice-picks around your neck, and be aware of those around you.
