Coronavirus update 9th January 2021
The whole of England is now under lockdown, which means that no group cycle rides can take place. Excercise is still allowed and it is permissible to cycle alone; with one other person not from your own household or with members of your own household. Cycling must be restricted to your own local area. For further information, see the following guidance from Cycling UK HQ:
