Here
you'll find the hand signals that the road captains use during our rides.
The signals are very easy to understand and remember.
GROUP RIDING HAND SIGNALS
Motorcycle hand signals are important for all riders to know
and understand but especially when riding in a group. (When riding in a group
the signals should be relayed back through the group.). Thanks to the
Salem HOG chapter for letting us use these great animations!
