Thou shalt not take me in rain, nor on the wrong path. Remember the road to keep it wholly, in view, but not all to thyself. Honor and consider thy fellow cyclist. Thou shalt not murder nor maim by "Scorching". Thou shalt not commit Adult-or-I-nfant to danger. Thou shalt not steal a march on either of them.
