IVCA update on Coronavirus (Covid-19)

The IVCA has been monitoring the escalating situation with regards to the spread of the Coronavirus closely in recent days and weeks. 

In addition to the virus being of major concern to the public at large, a significant portion of the IVCA membership are also in the “at risk” category as defined by the HSE.

We wish to advise members of the following guidelines that are publicly available as they apply to cycling, from bodies including Cycling Ireland and the HSE.
