The Spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19)
As a Club, the DRR needs to consider the latest guidance from the UK Government, PHE and NHS and also follow guidance from British Cycling. We are therefore cancelling all club rides and events until further notice. Below are the key points that relate to our riding and will need to be considered by each individual club member. Thank you for your consideration. Stay safe.
“First, based on the updated scientific advice, we are today advising that if you or anyone in your home has a high temperature or a new and continuous cough, then you should stay at home for 14 days. The exception to this is for exercise. Even then, you should keep at a safe distance from others”.
“Even if you or anyone in your household don’t have symptoms, there is more that we have to ask of you. Today we are advising people against all unnecessary social contact with others and all unnecessary travel. We should steer clear of pubs, clubs, cinemas and restaurants. This advice is directed at everyone, but it’s especially important for the over 70’s, for pregnant women and for those with some health conditions”.

Riding bicycles off road can be a dangerous pastime. Dorset Rough Riders promotes safe and responsible cycling. Riders attending club rides do so at their own risk. Neither the club nor any of its members will be held responsible for any accidents or injury sustained on rides. Please ride within the limit of your fitness and ability. If you are unwilling to ride any part of the route, please dismount and walk through the section. Under 16’s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.

HELMETS MUST BE WORN ON ALL RIDES
