CHILL BUT SAFE, PLEASE
Wear a helmet, use front and rear lights, and take all the precautions necessary to ride safely, especially in low visibility or high-traffic situations. Stay aware of your surroundings and anticipate potential risks.
If you notice someone in difficulty, at risk, or left alone behind, check in with them. Ask if they need support, wait with them if necessary, and make sure they are not left in a vulnerable situation.
If you’re unable to provide help directly, contact the organisation team so they can intervene appropriately.
Be mindful of your alcohol and substance consumption at all times. Know your limits, stay in control, and make sure your choices do not put yourself or others at risk.

Shared Responsibility
Creating an inclusive space requires intention, effort, and shared responsibility. It is something we build together, through attention, care, and accountability in the way we move, speak, and relate to each other.
This means taking care of each other, and be open to adjusting your behavior when needed.
Always ask for and respect pronouns. Avoid assumptions about people’s identities and experiences, especially in relation to gender, race, class, sexuality, and physical or mental health.
Language matters. Using inclusive language is part of creating a space where more people feel recognized and respected. Pay attention to how you speak and who is included, or excluded, through your words.
We also want to acknowledge that spaces are not neutral. They are shaped by systems of inequality and power.
Be mindful of how you take up space, both physically and in conversations. Make room for others. Do not interrupt, speak over, or dominate discussions.
Be mindful when you occupy a space of how your actions might reproduce dynamics of exclusion and violence.
For this reason, we ask especially those who hold more privilege, particularly cis men, to take responsibility for their own learning and unlearning processes.
Awareness cannot rely always on WTNBIA+ people. Being part of this event means making an active effort to inform yourself, to listen, and to question how you occupy space without expecting others to constantly guide you.
We will spend time at the sea.
The beach is often imagined as a free and relaxed space, but it is not experienced equally by everyone.
Please be aware of this: avoid staring, commenting, or any behavior that may make others feel unsafe or judged. Use nipple covers/ tshirt when not in the beach area.
Consent is fundamental. Always ask, and always respect the answer.
This applies to physical contact, photos, sharing personal information, and any interaction involving someone else’s boundaries. Consent also includes respecting personal and proxemic space.
We will not tolerate any form of discriminatory or harmful behavior, including racism, lesbophobia, biphobia, transphobia, transmisogyny, sexism, ableism, fatphobia, ageism, and classism. This includes both explicit actions and more subtle, normalized behaviors, as well as any violation of boundaries or consent.
