COVID-19 and Bike Events rides 2020

At present we are planning for all our events to go ahead this year and we are following  guidance from government, public health authorities and our medical providers.

We know people may be nervous about staying active at the moment, but being fit and healthy is an important deterrent to the risk of any infection in the first place. As long as you follow all the relevant advice on how to avoid catching or spreading the virus, we would still encourage you to look after your health by getting active and getting out on a bike

.

Current Government guidance indicates that sporting events can go ahead, and at present, all our forthcoming events are scheduled to go ahead as planned. British Cycling are recommending that no cycling events take place until April 30th. Our events are due to begin in early May but we will continue to keep this under review.

We will post any updates on our website, here, and on our facebook page 

Cancelling or postponing events will always be a last resort, however we will continue to closely follow Government advice to ensure that we are following best practice with regards to rider safety, which remains our highest priority.

Should we have to postpone an event we will offer riders the new date, to substitute a friend in their place, switch to a different event, or to receive a refund less an admin charge to cover bank and credit card costs.
