Following the resumption of group rides (see Announcement) and experience gained from our A & B rides on Sunday we have updated our guidelines for group riding as follows:
- DO NOT ATTEND any club event if you, or anyone in your household, is symptomatic, or self-isolating.
- Groups of no more than six riders will be formed, and they will depart at two minute intervals.
- As much as possible, we will maintain these groups from week to week, to minimize each member’s “social bubble”
- Social distancing rules apply.
- There is plenty of space in King’s Square, and we encourage its use to maintain separation.
- On the ride, respect other road users (including walkers, runners, horse riders, and cyclists) requirement for social distance (2 metres is the current government guidance) and where necessary single out.
- At the destination, which will be chosen to ensure outside accommodation, please stay with your group.
- Destinations will be selected during the preceding week. In the event of a wet forecast, there may not be a refreshment stop. If so, you are recommended to carry some provisions.
- The destination and route will be posted to the Club’s Facebook page and the Event Calendar. Please take note of it as you may be asked to lead your group.
- No points will be awarded towards attendance-based trophies (e.g. the Dancey Trophy), until further notice.
It would be appreciated if riders would advise the Vice Captain by the previous Friday if they plan to ride (gloscitycc.vc@gmail.com). This will assist him in making arrangements with the venue.
