Latest Update 28th July 2021

From Monday 19th July almost all legal restrictions in England on social contact, distancing and gathering were lifted. However, Covid-19 remains a major concern for us all, and we will maintain a cautious approach to our group activities.

Warrington RC will continue to limit our organised group ride size to 15
Before commencement of a ride one member will be designated by the group as ride leader. The ride leader will be responsible for ensuring everybody on the ride is shown as being a member of the group in Strava, this is to ensure traceability of all participants. Anybody not being tagged as part of the group needs noting separately and a record is to be held by Malcolm Horner along with who was ride leader on the individual ride.

Below is a summary of the sensible precautions relating to Covid-19:

• Current Government guidance is that you should limit the close contact you have with those you do not usually live with. This includes minimising the number, proximity, and duration of social contacts.
• Hence, when riding two abreast, we advise that riders should aim to stay beside the same rider for as much of the ride as possible.
  Participants must not attend a ride if they have Covid-19 symptoms, have someone in their household who does and are in the extremely vulnerable category or if they have been asked to remain at home by the UK Government test and trace system.
• Strong hand hygiene should be practiced by all involved before, during and after all cycling activity.
• Participants must practice good respiratory hygiene during the activity (i.e. coughing and sneezing into a tissue or the crook of an elbow)
  Participants must provide their own equipment and refreshments and avoid sharing the like of water bottles and food.
• Refreshment stops are permitted. You should make yourself aware of, and adhere to, all guidance put in place by the establishment.
