This document sets out instructions (mandatory measures) and makes recommendations
for good practice (recommended and desired measures) for organising cycling events during the
COVID-19 pandemic in the best possible conditions.
It concerns all UCI road races of the UCI WorldTour, UCI Women’s WorldTour and UCI
ProSeries. These measures will be adapted for Class 1 and 2 races, and for the off-road disciplines.
The document is divided into two main sections, a section concerning risk assessment, and a
section giving practical recommendations (and requirements) for the organisation of cycling
events.
As a preamble, it is recalled that
- local and national rules and laws prevail over the requirements and

according to new knowledge and new advances in the field of biotechnology, especially for COVID19 testing.
