Safety guidelines
- Adapt your speed and riding style to your ability and visibility.
- Ride sitting down and do not tie sledges together.
- Respect the lane of the sled in front. The sledger coming from behind must choose his lane in such a way that he does not endanger the sledger in front of him and overtake at a distance.
