and help to create a good club image. Below are listed the standard hand
signals as adopted by Blue Knights International.
Stop - Left hand extended downward and palm facing backward.
Right Turn - Left arm upright and hand extended.
Left Turn - Left arm extended straight out and hand extended.
Turnaround Signal - This is used for group riding as
well as signaling an individual rider approaching
Single File Riding - Arm extended over head with
index finger pointed up means single file riding,
used for narrow, winding roads road obstructions
and hazards.
Close Up Formation - Left arm moved in an up
and down Motion (pumping) with fist closed. This
action means tighten up or close riding formation,
catch up and stay close. The road Captain will
use this signal to execute a group maneuver.
Road Hazard - Pointing downward is to warn
fellow riders of pot holes and debris in the road
Staggered Riding - Hand straight up with four fingers
extended waving side to side. Staggered riding it used
on open roads and where there are a lot of turns. This
style allows the rider some leeway for drifting

abreast where permitted.

horn to alert Captain.
