What happens if the weather conditions are bad/too hot?
A decision will be made each day if conditions are deemed unsafe to cycle. This will consider wind, torrential rain, thunder and a temperature above 28C or any condition that it is considered dangerous to continue - then we may decide to abandon the event for that day. But a little rain won’t stop us!
