Hi, time trial riders and volunteers. Under the BC Government’s Return to Sport plan, individual time trials will be permitted this summer, provided that they are conducted according to Covid-19 safety guidelines issued by Cycling BC, which have been approved by BC Health authorities.
Sidney Velo is preparing a Covid-19 Safety Plan for our time trials, incorporating the Cycling BC guidelines, and the key features are:
Online registration only via the ccnbikes.com website for Cycling BC licence holders, who have signed a Covid-19 Declaration.
50-person onsite maximum, including riders, volunteers, and spectators.
2-m physical distancing at all times, except for passing, if the riders’ safety would be in jeopardy. A 1-m passing distance would be acceptable in those instances.
No ride holder at the start.
Self-serve race number pickup, attachment, removal, and return.
Volunteers use gloves for handling all equipment, which is cleaned between weekly use.
Masks to be worn for contact closer than 2 m, or at the volunteer’s discretion if greater than 2 m.
No pre- or post-race gatherings.
Results available only online.
The Tuesday evening time trials would occur weekly in July and August, and the Paskin Cowichan Valley 20-km (for U19) and 40-km time trials would be on a Sunday at noon in either July or August.
We perceive that the cycling community is divided on whether to stage time trials this summer, and we need to know how many of you would be willing to ride and/or volunteer to make it a worthwhile endeavour.
The question is how many of you would ride or volunteer for:
Tuesday Time Trials (perhaps as many as 9 TT’s between July 7 through September 1), How many? Ride__________ Volunteer___________
Paskin Cowichan Valley Time Trial: Ride ________________Y/N Volunteer ________________Y/N
Please respond by June 14th as a club decision will be made on June 15th. No need to respond if you would not ride or volunteer.
Thanks for your help!
