Totally agree .But can  I correct you on one thing. ALL his posts are to produce a reaction and that is the dictionary description of a troll.  Smile

Zeon, there are folk who come on here, also when they're bored, some post interesting stuff, some even educate, but others just like nothing more than to snipe from the sidelines, you and the double barrelled fe-male who's name I don't even try to recall.

Prove me wrong, highlight to me one of your most informative posts...

And I'll take anything and everything derogatory I might have said to or about you back.

A decade ago I started an excellent thread about favourite pizzas. I've been resting on my laurels ever since.

Maybe next year I'll come up with something else insightful.

Agreed.

There are loads of clubs out there that don't mandate safety cover and never have. The vast majority of these are probably coastal of all places!

Club insurance - none issue. We aren't talking proper organised racing, we are talking as DavidYacht suggests at best "rabbit" races to begin with.

This may be less of an issue than we think with more recent advise (Was it yesterday?) that will be aimed at getting sport and leisure moving again. Outdoors the risk of transmission is shown to be far lower, and you probably can maintain a level of social distance in a RIB if it's big enough. What do you do if there's a casualty? The same as if someone falls off their bike, hurts themselves running etc etc.
