Coronavirus and Audax
Rupert:
Surprising that this is not yet mentioned here like on the AUK forum. Was planning on riding some 200's and then a 300 in the summer, but I have been advised not to ride such lengthy events as the immune system is temporarily suppressed after vigorous exercise, where as moderate boosts it, so 10+ hours in the saddle are not a good idea.
I would be interested in how do others see this?

That's because we already have a massive thread about it in the relevant board: https://yacf.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=114653.0;topicseen
As a member of an at-risk group, it hasn't put me off cycling (which is generally beneficial to my lung health). But avoiding public transport to organised events may become prudent.

Just ride.
