Some tips for staying safe include knowing your abilities and riding within your limits, using caution and slowing down when operating on unfamiliar terrain, and always riding in groups while letting people know where you are going.
The RCMP also suggest wearing proper protective clothing including a helmet, being cautious of ice thickness, and never riding while impaired.
