Greetings Cycling Friends,
We hope all of you are well and continue in good health through these difficult times both for the illness and dealing with quarantine measures. Hopefully it’s apparent now why we were early in suspending group club activities as a reasonable precaution. We had suspicion this was going to turn into weeks of disruption and that’s exactly what has happened. As you realize, Ohio is under stay at home orders until May 1st as of now. TRR will not do or recommend anything that we do not see as safe and/or in line with government orders. Our board and Tour directors have reviewed the situation and provide the following updates:
–Club Group rides are still suspended. Even once they are re-opened it will likely be prudent to be careful about not showing up to rides ill, increased group distancing, etc. We will offer suggestions once this changes.
-The April 25th meeting is postponed. Since we went to a 2 meeting schedule this year instead of 3, we will likely reschedule for late May or June or whenever possible.
-All club projects for 2020 are on pause at this time: new member t-shirts, Ascend member clothing order, Riverwalk Keep Right safety project, likely all youth safety rodeos.
-We still encourage you to get out and ride with anyone within your immediate housing situation or close daily contact assuming you are not ill. Or ride by yourself. Please exercise increased precaution for all outdoor riding to avoid accidents. The roads are actually with slightly less traffic at this time.
