COVID-19 New Guidelines and Safety Precautions

Bikes on Rice Safety COVID-19 precautions include:

  • No congregating in the county parking lot prior to the start of the ride
  • Practice standard social distancing
  • Participants will touch only their own family group’s equipment
  • No mechanical assistance will be offered or provided
  • No food or beverages will be offered or provided by event coordinators
  • Coordinators recommend participants’ mask usage
  • Participating cyclists will be limited to six or fewer riders per SQUAD member & bicycling group
  • SQUAD members will serve as guides for the pre-determined tour on Lihue’s quiet streets

 

We want people being comfortable riding through town. The more bicycles you see, the more you’ll expect to see them. More safety. It’s not the Spandex bicycle crowd. It’s just regular folks riding bikes around the neighborhood.
