Welcome back to 2020 racing season. We kick off this Saturday, July 4th at 2:30pm with a 20k TIMETRIAL on Dangarsleigh Road. Col Maciver is our club Race Director and he and I are currently finalising our commissaire qualifications.

CyclingNSW requires our club to have a “COVID19 Safety Coordinator” (myself) and to follow certain protocols.

This will be developed further as we get back into racing, but we are starting with the following:

-do not race or attend the event if you are sick or have been in contact with a known COVID case (or been to Melbourne)
– if possible, download COVIDSafe APP and use during event
practice safe distancing at all times (CyclingNSW recommends “race and leave”)
– if you decide to stay after you finish, please practise Social Distance
– results will be published on website
– hand sanitiser and wipes are provided
– bring all your own equipment and do not share

sign-on and payment
– sign-on sheet has been re-designed so there is no need to physically touch it: riders will be ticked off by Col and/or Wilf
– we have to keep records for minimum of 28 days after each event
– throw $3 into bucket provided – NO CHANGE will be given
– or pay with direct bank transfer as per Wilfs email
– we’ll tick either column on sign-on sheet so rely on honesty system

For this event, please be at the start by 2:15 so we can get process right and have a general BRIEFING at 2:25.
– First rider will leave at 2:30 sharp.
– No holders this time, standing start for all riders.
