FAQ’s
Is this a race?
NO THIS IS NOT A RACE.
It is however a timed event and all finishers will receive a personal completion time and a medal.
Can I use an e-bike / mountain bike?
Yes absolutely, the 70km route is designed for e-bikes and MTB riders.
What kind of bike is suitable?
Both courses are aimed at riders of road/race bikes but that doesn’t mean you can’t ride any other kind of bike if you want to.
We do suggest that people who ride regularly and want a challenge have a go at the 110km route.
Are there many hills?
Due to the shape of our lovely island there are some hills on both routes.
The 70km route will climb 3 hills and a couple of rises, whereas the 110km takes in a couple of bays and valleys too.
I have only been riding for a couple of months, will this be too much for me?
Not at all.
The 70km route will be a good ride to give you the confidence to tackle a longer distance next year.
Is there any support if I have a mechanical issue?
There will be an emergency number for serious mechanical issues but we advise you to get your bike checked by a bike shop before you ride.
Please take a puncture repair kit and spares with you on the day.
Can I enter on the day?
No.
All entries are online and MUST be completed by 17:00 on April 30th.
Are the roads closed to traffic?
