MacRetro chat and rides thread

Sorry to be a killjoy, but you’d still need public liability insurance even if you found a waiver that would stand up to scrutiny.
All these audax that have been run for years have had all the risk assessments done and the associated cost covered years ago.
Don’t think you can pretend to not be the organiser if anything does wrong.

I applaud the idea, but frankly there’s a reason more people aren’t out there organising these kind of events.

Re:

Don't worry Clubby, let me do the worry it, I am good at that. So I have now contacted the Scotland branch of British Cycling as they are keen on helping folk organise cycling events and offer insurance deals. Plan is moving more toward off road audax style and being more inclusive in that any one with any style of bike they are prepared to ride on and off road will be welcome. Mainly mtb/gravel riders I see as the main audience. We will see, there must be a way.....

Re:

Saw this new publication and thought it might interest us lot in Macretro land.

But I see Rob has been keeping quiet about it

That got me with "Wine Gums and other Superfoods"

Proper cycling literature.
