All 2021 tour participants,

The Board of Directors voted last night to make the following changes for our tours this year. We are sending you the HeartCycle COVID vaccine policy effective this touring season.

HeartCycle Covid-19 Vaccine Policy for 2021

HeartCycle is actively monitoring and implementing guidelines recommended by health officials, including the Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization.

For 2021 Tours from June 1-July 31,2021. The Board of Directors for HeartCycle strongly encourages all tour participants be vaccinated for Covid-19

before participating on these HeartCycle tours. Please have a copy of your CDC vaccination card available on your phone, or your tour leader may request a copy be sent prior to the tour.

Non-vaccinated participants are required to provide documentation, at the Orientation Meeting, of a negative Covid-19 test taken 72 hours or less prior to the Orientation Meeting.

For 2021 Tours after August 1, 2021 (and the Annual Meeting): A full Covid-19 vaccination will be required for all participants.

Please have a copy of your CDC vaccination card available on your phone, or your tour leader may request a copy be sent prior to the tour.

For ALL 2021 Tours and Meetings: All participants will have their temperature taken each day of the trip.

If a participant has a fever over 100 degrees or other COVID symptoms, they will be asked to depart the tour (or meeting) at their own expense.

All participants will be required to wear face masks in vans, indoors, and any time social distancing cannot be maintained.

Be safe and see you on tours soon,

Judy Siel

Co-Tour Director

WHAT IS HEARTCYCLE?

The HeartCycle Bicycle Touring Club is a non-profit Colorado corporation in its 40th year of providing bicycle tours. The club is organized and run by volunteers who enjoy the challenge and the fun of cycle touring and want to share their enthusiasm.

HeartCycle has the unique distinction of having originally been formed as a cardiac research project (hence the name), but has long since become simply a non-profit bicycling club that promotes multi-day, SAG supported tours. A volunteer Board of Directors meets monthly and welcomes member attendance and participation in planning and running events. HeartCycle also has many other volunteers working to assist the Board.
