Our local cycling coalition provides insurance to group rides that covers accidents, theft, etc. along with their nominal annual membership. They have been quite reasonable about group riding guidelines, slowly ramping up restrictions along with local risk levels and health guidelines, and now the guidance is "no group riding." So people can do rides if they want, but the insurance doesn't cover us if they do.
Local health guidelines are relaxing a bit now and we expect a return to group sport in small groups soon, but that'll still probably be only back to 4 rider groups, same group every ride, etc. That may last until vaccines are further rolled out.
