With vaccinations currently being rolled out around the globe, we feel that travel and events will be able to resume in a more normal fashion later this year. We are confident that we have the appropriate policies and procedures in place to allow Grinduro events to be run safely when they return to the calendar later in 2021.
We have produced the following guidelines to ensure the safety and health of our riders at Grinduro events. These are the minimum recommendations for what can be safely achieved while maintaining the successful feel of a Grinduro event. Grinduro events will also follow the local laws and COVID guidance in their area.
Grinduro Global are determined that events should only proceed on the proposed date in the Grinduro calendar if the above criteria can be met.
There are individual scenarios related to COVID-19 that may affect your ability to attend a Grinduro event. This coupled with the likelihood of changing guidance from different countries, and the fact that our participants often travel from around the world, means it is impossible for the Grinduro management team and our organizers, to have a rule for every possible situation.
Our overarching COVID-19 strategy is designed to offer a safe event environment, while also allowing us to operate Grinduro events with some certainty. If because of individual circumstances (i.e. not something that affects the entire event) you are unable to take part, you will need to contact us and allow us to work with you to produce a satisfactory resolution.
Below are some answers to common questions you may have:
If the area/country where you live is put under a local lockdown, we would expect you to follow the guidelines from the relevant authorities. If these guidelines include advice not to travel to another area or country, which therefore prevents you from attending, we will review your case with the intention of transferring your entry to the next Grinduro event in 2021 or 2022 in that region.
If you test positive for COVID-19, or are forced to self-isolate within 10 days of the start of the event, you will need to email us at hello@grinduro.global with a copy of communications outlining your status. We will review your case with the intention of transferring your entry as a credit to the next Grinduro event in 2021 or 2022 in that region.
Unfortunately, we are not able to reimburse travel costs. We encourage everyone to take out appropriate travel insurance which includes COVID-19 cover.
If Grinduro Global and our event partners are forced to postpone an event in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, you will automatically be transferred to the new date.
Terms and conditions for Grinduro events differ geographically and riders should review these prior to entry. Refunds are at the discretion of the event organizer and the T&C's specific to that region. Please contact the event organiser directly, using the contact form on the website.
