Check Your Chip/Rider Number & Booking Ref

NOTE – Specific To Next Event Only. Please do not check here before 10am Tuesday as this detail is updated on the Tuesday before each event.

From 10am on the Tuesday before the event you can check what your rider number and booking reference is.

Rider packs need to be collected at the HQ on your way to the start line.

Pre-Event Questionnaire.

It is essential that all riders complete the pre-event questionnaire for each event. This can be done from 10am on Tuesday and must be completed before 18:00 Thursday.

No complete form = NO RIDE I’m afraid.

Book your start time here.

We set riders off 10 per minute and you must book your start slot for each event.

Please select an available time and enter your chip/rider number.

Make a note of the time you have booked and then head to the start line a few minutes before the time you have booked.

Arrive in adequate time to collect your rider pack, get the bike ready and enjoy a coffee. We encourage you to arrive 30 mins before your start, not more.

*You can book friends a start time but it is essential that they complete their own pre-event form. Legal action could be taken if a rider does not complete their own questionnaire*
