USA Cycling cancels everything thru April 5th

Post by GlacierBoy »

USA Cycling probably waited until the last big pro bike race finished yesterday in France, Paris-Nice.
I guess we should be watching Europe to see when they re-Open pro soccer(football), Cycling, etc as the US is a week or two behind them in this

Everything being cancelled from pros down to club events....

USA CYCLING STATEMENT ON COVID-19
By: USA Cycling March 12, 2020
Updated March 15, 2020
Due to the latest data on COVID-19’s spread and the healthcare system’s ability to manage this crisis, USA Cycling is recommending cancellation of all sanctioned events immediately and calling on all race and event directors, clubs, coaches, athletes, and members to postpone or cancel all scheduled races and events immediately. This includes any gatherings such as group rides, in-person group meetings, etc.

We are suspending permits on all events through April 5th.
USA Cycling will continue to monitor and meet with partners to assess the state of this national emergency and its impact on the cycling community.
We are taking measures within our control and asking everyone involved in this sport to protect our community so we can get back to riding and racing with everyone in good health as soon as possible.
