Dust off your brooms (bikes), witches!

In the spirit of Hamish’s Difference, we want the Witches Ride (the “Event”) to be fun and safe! It is important that all “witches” know, follow and consent to the guidelines below (the “Code of Conduct”).

1. 1. Safety First! We strongly recommend all riders follow the appropriate bike safety rules, including wearing properly fitting helmets and biking appropriate footwear.
2. 2. No drinking and biking! Consuming alcoholic beverages or illegal substances during the ride is strictly prohibited.
3. 3. Obey all traffic rules and follow the designated route. Ride predictably and maintain a safe distance.
4. 4. Be respectful of your fellow witches, volunteers and motorists.

If a “witch” is suspected to be in violation of any of these rules, the Event committee reserves the right to request such witch fly away on her broomstick and never return! Failure to follow the Code of Conduct may also jeopardize future attendance at a Hamish’s Difference event.

We hope this will be a fun annual event for many years in memory of Hamish Fenton. Happy Witching!
