Holmfirth Cycling Club have evolved their own system of communications and behaviours on the road to help maintain group safety. Detailed explanations can be found on the Club Runs Guidance page, but the key points are repeated below:

• Shouts: Car up, Car down, Singles, Mile off, Slowing, Stopping, All on?, Clear, Pot hole, Glass, Standing. All riders to repeat shouts to ensure communication up and down the group.
• Signals: Hazard left, Hazard right, Pull out, Pull in, Slowing plus Highway Code direction signals. All riders to repeat signals to ensure communication down the group.
• Position: 0.75 m from gutter, 1m from wheel in front. When riding in pairs, 2nd file 0.5-1.0 m from inside file. Prevent gaps appearing.
• Behaviour: maintain steady speed, no harsh braking, check no gaps behind, no overlapping wheels, no more than twos, only overtake on outside, avoid kicking back
