Follow the start times and you'll comfortably make the route cut-offs.
Cut-off times can be found on the individual event pages. If you start within the recommended start window and ride steadily, you'll have plenty of time to complete your chosen route.
As an example, riders on the long route who start by 08:00 can comfortably make the cut-offs riding at approximately 12mph (20kph), including sensible feed station stops.
The first riders leave at 07:30. If you're concerned about cut-offs or want a more relaxed day, we recommend joining the first group.
