KCTS Trail Etiquette, Feb 2009
Motorized use is prohibited.
Share the trails, slow down and communicate when passing. Use your voice to warn equestrians, not bells or horns.
Respect the land, landowners, and wildlife, leaving no trace.
Be responsible, these trails are unsupervised and are to be used at your own risk.
Cyclist are responsible for keeping their bike under control and at a safe speed at all times.
When encountering other users on a trail it is recommended that cyclists yield to all other users, and foot traffic yield to equestrians. Downhill traffic should yield to uphill traffic. When in doubt, give the other user the right of way.
Equestrian Safety Notes:
When a horse approaches, move off the trail as far as possible. It is recommended to allow 2-3 meters distance of clearance. Ask the horse rider for instructions. A group should step off to the same side, lower side preferred.
