The VOL team is closely monitoring the alarming situation due to COVID-19. We are grateful to all the brevet participants who do not require immediate answers from us. According to the plan, on May 1, VOL participants will have to make a second payment for Russian participants we must indicate our position.
Currently, we see the following options for further action:
We apologize in advance to foreign participants, but we are considering the possibility of holding the VOL, even if the Russian border is closed. If this happens, we will organize an additional event in 2021 (either along the same route, or along the Russia-Finland route).
In case of transfer, we will return the money to those who will not be able to participate in it. The return mechanism will be made public after the transfer decision.
The decision on the possible rescheduling of the event for August 2020 or 2021 will be made until June 1. Depending on the epidemiological situation, changes are possible
