Sunday skills at Silk Mills - 3rd Jan

Following the recent announcements taht Somerset is entering Tier 4, we are still able to operate our outdoor coaching sessions in a group of up to 30.  This is in accordance with the British Cycling guidance on resuming club activities and Government advice on organised sporting activities for under 18's.  This allows us to meet as a group/bubble of up to 30 to the front building in the centre of the park and ride.  We still ask you to keep 2 metres apart at the meeting point and throughout the session.

This event is open to existing club members and new members will be asked to join a waiting list until we have sufficient space for you to attend.  We are limited on rider numbers to a maximum of 24 riders and will be coaching in 3 groups of up to 8 riders.

It is only open to people who reside in a Tier 4 area as you should not move between tiers.

We will be closing online bookings at 12pm on Saturday 2nd January

If you are not booked in, you will not be able to attend the session.

Sign in is at 10.20am and as soon as you are signed in we will ask you to start warming up and be ready to ride at 10.30.

You will need to bring your own :

• bike (we suggest tyres that are suitable for riding on grass)
• helmet
• water bottle
• snack
• warm layers and waterproof if wet
• £2 session fee in a named envelope. Exact change only as we will not be able to give any change.

We will be unable to share or lend any equipment during this session.

In line with current government guidelines, masks or face coverings are not required if social distancing is maintained. At this stage using face masks or coverings is a personal choice but it should not restrict breathing.  Riders could use a buff around their neck which is easy to remove.

We are asking parents to undertake a comprehensive bike check prior to arrival at the session, as coaches will be unable to make any adjustments, in line with current guidance.

Parents - As we are now in Tier 4 please can we remind you of the social distancing guidelines of 2 metres and you will be required to view from a 'spectators' area in groups of no more than 1 household. You will not be able to join the coaching groups.

If you or anyone in your household is showing any symptoms of Covid-19 prior to the event, you must not attend. Following an event, should any riders develop or show any symptons of Covid-19, we ask you to contact the club coaches for Track and Trace purposes.
