Not much, that’s because our support team will feed you. You are encouraged to bring your own secret formula – whatever makes your wheels turn!

Ideally yes. It may be worth learning the basics. Most of the time it’s better to carry a spare inner tube and change that if you get a puncture while out on a ride. Our support team will help you if you have any complications. It’s also important to make sure that your tyres are checked and correctly inflated before you go out.

Yes! Swaps can be arranged but may be limited based on entry. It is important to train for the distance you are entering. We highly recommend sticking to a strict training schedule, especially for the longer distances. No training is needed for the short track, unless you ready want to win the prize. Ready to train now, right?

Stretching allows you to maintain a full range of movement in the muscles and helps to prevent injury. It’s key to do this after your bike ride. If the session has been intense or if it’s been very cold, it’s better to stretch after you’ve warmed up. It’s also important to warm up before you start cycling, not doing this can lead to pulled muscles.
