  • Every rider rides their own ride and can leave the group at any time.
  • Members see each other's position only while the ride runs.
  • The Community Guidelines apply in every ride, its chat and its voice channel.

A plain-language guide to the text below. The full text is what applies.

These Group Ride Terms apply when you organize, lead or join a group ride on MotoRev. They are part of the Terms of Service and sit alongside the Community Guidelines.

1. What MotoRev Provides

In Short. Tools to plan a ride, invite riders, see each other on the map and talk. Not the ride itself.

MotoRev lets any rider create a group ride, choose who can join (public, invite only or private), set a route and meeting point, give riders roles (leader, co-leader, sweep and member), see members on the map during the ride, chat and use live voice.

MotoRev does not organize, sponsor, supervise, insure or lead any group ride. We do not check the route, the riders, their licenses, their bikes or their experience. A ride's leader is a rider like you, not an agent or employee of MotoRev.

2. Every Rider Rides Their Own Ride

In Short. You decide whether to go, how to ride and when to leave the group.

  • You are responsible for your own riding, your bike, your gear, your license, your insurance and obeying traffic laws.
  • You decide whether a ride, its route and its pace suit your skill and the conditions. You can leave a group ride at any time.
  • Never ride beyond your limits to keep up. Never pressure another rider to.
  • Routes, meeting points, road information and weather in a ride may be wrong or out of date.
  • Live voice and the map are aids. Do not let them take your attention off the road.

3. If You Organize or Lead a Ride

In Short. Describe the ride honestly and follow the law. You are not MotoRev's representative.

  • Describe the ride honestly, including its route, pace, length and any experience it needs.
  • Follow the law, including any permit rules for organized rides or events where you ride.
  • Do not organize street racing, stunt riding on public roads or anything else the Community Guidelines prohibit.
  • Leading a ride on MotoRev does not make you responsible for other riders' choices, and it does not make MotoRev responsible for yours.
  • If you charge money or offer something in return for joining, that is between you and the riders. MotoRev does not process it.

4. Location During a Ride

In Short. Members see each other's position while the ride runs. It stops when the ride ends.

  • While a group ride runs, members of that ride see each other's live position on the map. Riders who are not members do not, and blocked or banned riders are hidden.
  • Positions come from your recorded ride or from your recent location. Your Riding Circle and other location settings work as usual.
  • A ride ends when the leader ends it. A ride with no fresh position for 2 hours ends on its own.
  • The Privacy Policy explains how live positions are stored and deleted.

5. Conduct and Reports

In Short. The Community Guidelines apply in every ride, its chat and its voice channel.

Harassment, threats, stunt bait and the other conduct the Community Guidelines prohibit are not allowed in a ride, its chat or its voice channel. You can report a ride, a rider or a message from its menu, or write to support. Enforcement follows the ladder in the Guidelines.

6. Risk and Liability

In Short. Riding in a group carries real risk, and MotoRev is not liable for what happens on the road.

Motorcycle riding, and riding in a group, carries a risk of serious injury and death. To the fullest extent the law allows, you take on the risks of riding in a group ride you join or lead, and MotoRev is not liable for the conduct of any rider, the condition of any route or road, or any injury or damage that happens during a group ride. The warranty disclaimer, limitation of liability and dispute terms in the Terms apply. Nothing here limits liability that the law does not allow us to limit.
