Bike wash facilities
- Yes we do. However we cannot guarantee charging on course so make sure your battery life is sufficient for the distance you have chosen.
What is better about a road bike?
- Road bikes, as the name suggests, are designed for use on the road. They typically have a more aggressive, more aerodynamic position, dropped handlebars and smooth relatively narrow tyres. A gravel bike fitted with slick (ie smooth tyres) will be almost as good. A chunkier full-suspension mountain bike with knobbly tyres will slow you down considerably.
Do I need a specific type of bike?
- No any roadworthy bike will do including ebikes & tandems. We recommend using a road bike for our road sportives.
Can I use Tri bars (aerobars)
- No these are not permitted as they can be dangerous if your riding in bunch or small group.
Will there be timing chips?
- Yes, timing chips are mounted on the back of your race numbers. These need to be attached, using the zip ties we provide, to the front of your bike. Please ensure, as far as you can, that the number is not covered up by cables, bags or anything else.
Are there any age restrictions on your sportives?
- Yes there are. You need to be 15 or over to take part in any of the sportives unaccompanied. Age guidelines for the various events & distances are on the individual event pages.
Do I need to be a member of a club to enter?
- No, all our events are open to all whether you're a member of a club or not.
Can I get a refund or defer my registration to next year?
- Sorry, we are not able to offer refunds as we start to incur costs as soon as we announce an event. However we now offer free name changes up to 7 days before an event with our booking software Eventrac. Just scroll to the bottom of your email receipt and click the link which says 'online receipt'. You will then see options to transfer your entry. We are also happy to transfer your entry to a different event for a charge of £8 (£5 for under 16s) provided you contact us a minimum of 7 days before the date of the event.
