The Mentor must insure the RC candidate understands the requirement to become an RC and the responsibilities of being an RC. Review them with the candidate. A printed copy should be given to the candidate. The Mentor must insure the RC candidate has all the items that make up the RC Tool and First Aid kits. Check them.

The Mentor must insure the candidate is totally knowledgeable of the THCC Group Riding Guidelines. The Mentor should insure ride evaluations are based on specific elements, not off the cuff. The Mentor should review any (RC qualifying) ride plans with the candidate before the candidate presents the plans to the Safety Officer. 8
9 Road Captain Guidelines The purpose of these guidelines is to provide directions that will help every Road Captain plan and lead a safe and enjoyable ride. These guidelines are a supplement to our THCC Group Riding Guidelines. Every Road Captains must be thoroughly knowledgeable of both documents. Monthly Road Captains Meeting Each month, Texas Hill Country Chapter holds a Road Captains meeting. All Road Captains are expected to attend the majority of Road Captains meetings as well as a majority of General Membership meetings. The purpose of the Road Captains meeting Is to conduct Chapter business regarding the THCC Ride Schedule and group riding safety before the planned rides. Ride Planning The ride planning process begins at the monthly Road Captains meetings. RCs may sign up to plan and lead a chapter ride on a designated date to a destination of their choice or plan and lead a chapter ride to a location chosen by the Activities Committee. This process usually takes place at the December-January RC meetings. Destinations may include, and are not limited to, restaurants, other HOG chapter rides and events, scenic routes and/or any destination that offers members the opportunity to ride and have fun. The lead RCs for any month s chapter rides should arrive at each Road Captains meeting with a ride plan for the ride and the time and date for the pre-ride. The lead RC for the ride will brief the ride and solicit support for RCs to lead and sweep individual groups on the day of the ride. RC Pre-Ride The purpose of the RC pre-ride is to insure enough RCs are available as leads and sweeps on the day of the actual ride. RCs leading a group on the day of a ride must have participated in the pre-ride. Group sweeps should also have participated in the preride but may not be possible for all rides. The lead RC should 9
10 disseminate the ride route before the pre-ride via as well as providing paper copies of the route for the RCs on the day of the pre-ride. During the pre-ride the lead RC solidify factors such as the length of the legs, rest stops and gas stops, and parking at the destination Staging Area The staging area for the monthly chapter meeting ride will be the meeting location. The staging area for other chapter ride will be determined by the lead RC for the ride and will be posted on the chapter web page, in the monthly Hog Snort, briefed at the monthly chapter meeting, and the weekly updates. The monthly chapter meeting ride: The lead RC for the ride should arrive at the meeting location at least 30 minutes before the meeting and insure the ride sign-up list is available for the chapter members. RCs that will be leading and sweeping groups will check in with lead RC and make sure they are assigned to a group. During the chapter meeting either the Safety Officer or lead RC for the ride will give a brief summary of the ride and point out where the separate groups will meet for their pre-ride briefing and the departure times for the groups. Additional RCs in a group will be placed at the rear of their group. Other chapter rides: The lead RC and group RCs should arrive at the staging area at least 30 minutes before the published departure time to great the riders. The lead RC will break the riders into groups of riders that includes the Group RC and the Sweep. Just prior to departing for the ride, the Road Captain will hold a pre-ride briefing. Again, additional RCs will be placed at the rear of their group. (see Pre-Ride Briefing Card) RC Equipment: While in the staging area the lead RC for the ride must check with all of his supporting RCs ( group leads and sweeps)to insure they have the required tools, first aid kit, and cell phones with each others numbers as well as the number for towing. 10
11 Pre-Ride Briefing Start the pre-ride briefing minutes before the published departure time. Review your briefing card before the actual briefing. Give a good briefing. The pre-ride briefing sets the tone for your group for the ride. Don t cut corner on the briefing because your group is small or the route and destination are very familiar. (see Pre-Ride Briefing Card ) Release Forms Group RCs are responsible for obtaining completed adult and minor non members release forms. The completed forms will be given to the lead RC for the ride. All completed forms will then be passed to the Safety Officer. The Ride The lead RC should start out slowly, allowing time for all the group riders to get out onto the road and into position. The larger the group the slower the start. Increase the speed to cruising speed at a reasonable rate. The lead RC must be looking ahead and anticipating his actions. Think ahead. Plan lane changes in advance. Signal lane changes, ramp entrances and exits and turns ¼ to ½ miles in advance. Start the lane change as soon as you feel the signal has been passed back. Check your rear view mirror for other vehicles well before the lane change. Keep the length of the legs on a ride to a reasonable time between breaks. Other riders may tire before your or have a smaller tank. No iron butt segments on club rides. An hour and a half or 70 miles should be the maximum, even on long trips. Keep the group to the right lane at all times, unless passing another vehicle or conditions in the right line warrant staying in the left lane, such as on/off ramps on interstate highways. On highways with 3 lanes each way, you may choose to stay in the middle lane. When pulling off of the road to stop, find an area that will accommodate the entire group. When parking, pull into the area, ride to the end or furthest spot that you can park, and swing the front of 11
12 your bike out. Back in. All the other bikes should follow suit. This approach usually makes the best use of available parking and looks neat. When traveling through town, a traffic light or a stop sign may break up the group. The lead RC can pull over to wait, if there is a place. If there is not an area to pull over, the lead RC will continue at a reduced rate of speed until the trailing group is united with the lead group. Do not hesitate to talk with riders who appear to be causing problems. Be polite and constructive, until that approach does not work. At this point bring the problem to Safety Officer or the Director for resolution. If an accident does happen, follow the procedures outlined on your Accident Management Card. As a rule, the Sweep RC will take charge of the scene and direct the other RCs and Chapter members to help with certain tasks i.e. traffic control, moving a downed motorcycle, assist in moving an injured person, as needed. A breakdown should be handled by the middle or sweep RC. Help the rider determine the cause of the breakdown and attempt to get the motorcycle running. If you cannot get the motorcycle running discuss with the rider who can be called for help. Stay with the rider until help arrives or the rider tells you he/she has help on the way. After the Ride: Usually, the THCC ride is officially over once the ride group arrives at its planned destination. Since the Texas Hill Country Chapter often travels substantial distances, many riders will want to reassemble for an organized ride back to dealership. The lead RC for the ride and the group RCs will jointly determine how the return ride will be organized. Regardless, each group RC should ask his/her sweep and the group to provide a quick assessment of the ride. Share the assessment with the Safety Officer and other lead RCs for the ride. Our goal as Road Captains is to lead safe, smart and enjoyable rides. Make it clear to all HOG club member that each rider is ultimately responsible the safety and operation of their own bike. 12
13 Ride Cancellation Weather conditions and road conditions will occasionally require a ride to be modified or cancelled. The decision will be joint effort by the RC responsible for the ride, the Director and the Safety Officer. Anyone of these three can initiate the discussion. Some general guidelines for considering a cancellation are high temperatures with a heat index of 95 degrees or higher, low temperatures with a projected high of 50 degrees or lower, road ice along the route, forecasted rain during the ride along the route, and unsafe road conditions caused by the weather or construction. Rides can be modified rather than cancelled if the changes meet the test of Ride Safe and Have Fun. 13
14 Road Captain Evaluation This work sheet can be used to evaluate the lead or sweep by a Road Captain trainee. It is also a good pre-ride review for experienced Road Captains. 1.
