Club rides

I have removed references to club rides on the main web site. The committee are currently discussing club rides. I think it is probably appropriate to keep as low a profile as possible, so please try and avoid large groups both gathering and on the road. Let's not have a massive group of Nova shirts riding though town.

Any thoughts welcome.

Having received various correspondence and seen the rapid changing of circumstances on an hourly basis it is appropriate to advise against all club rides.

Sport England are saying that exercise, including cycling, is advisable. It is the group nature that is considered a risk. Harrogate Nova should not be seen at this time to be promoting any group activity. I would ask that members do not advertise for participants for rides.

There doesn't seem to be anything to train for and since hard training can reduce your immune system it is wise to hold back.

Keep your hands clean and stay calm.

Thanks for the clarification Duncan.

There has been a big backlash over the weekend generally against groups in the Yorkshire area and beyond. Please do not ride in groups, for the safety of the population at large.
