COVID-19 Riding Regulations

Scheduled rides for June must be ridden solo, adhering to all of the ACP/Audax regulations with participants incorporating the following additional rules:

• Riders must inform the ride coordinator, using the online registration system on the club website, at least two working days before their intended start date, that they will be riding the event. This is to ensure that the rider’s name is submitted to the ABA for insurance purposes.
• We cannot offer rides greater than 400km as these typically require access to accommodations which have not been opened up yet.
• Riders can ride an event any day of the week within seven days before or after the scheduled event date indicated in the club calendar.
• Riders must ride the event solo, with no other club members. As per the ACP/Audax rules, you cannot use the help of other riders you encounter on route.
• Riders must adhere strictly to the formal event route, including start and end locations.
• Riders must practice social distancing at all times during the event.
• Riders must carry a face mask and use it when entering public establishments for any purpose, including the use of bathroom facilities and purchasing water or nutrition.
• Riders will not be required to, nor should they, have their brevet card signed at the start, finish, or controls. In lieu of this, riders will take a selfie of themselves with an identifiable control landmark and write in their arrival time. Riders will have their face mask on for each selfie.
• When purchasing water or nutrition, riders must use credit or debit cards (tap/contactless if possible), do not ask for or take a receipt.
• When overtaking other riders during the event ensure that it is safe to do so and pass with the appropriate physical distancing.
• After the event: Using the link that was emailed to you upon registration, update your finish time (or indicate DNS or DNF) as soon as possible upon completion. Within 48 hours of completing the event, submit through the same registration link:
  1. Brevet card (scanned or photograph) and
  2. the photos that were taken at the start, finish and controls.
