General Rules for the Weekend

It is your responsibility as a competitor to know ALL the rules. Ignorance is no defence.

  • It is your responsibility as a competitor to know and correctly complete the full course.
  • Foul and abusive language is not permitted and the failure to follow a marshals instructions, the police or referee will lead to disqualification. Marshals are volunteers who help with the running of the event that you are taking part in. Please respect them and thank them for their efforts.
  • No outside assistance is allowed at any time.
  • Please do not use mobile phones or listening devices that may impair your hearing or concentration in any way on the course (including transition) as this will lead to disqualification. When racing you need to be aware of other competitors and the general public (both on foot and live traffic).
  • You MUST wear a safety helmet on the bike that is of ANSI Z90.4, SNELL B90, EN 1078 or equivalent. A CE mark is not an approved standard. The strap to your helmet must also be snug in its fitting and not altered in any way (and definitely not elastic). These will be checked visually when racking your bike.
  • No TT Bikes will be allowed to take part in the event. This will be checked visually when entering the start you will not be allowed if they are deemed dangerous.
  • Bikes are single use only - tandem bikes are not permitted.
  • You will also need to keep your chest covered at all times on the cycle and the run, no matter how hot it is.
  • Event numbers must be worn on the back for the bike and on the front for the run. They must be clearly visible at all times. They must not be altered or mutilated in any way, otherwise you will be penalised.
  • The course is comprehensively marshalled and signed with black arrows and fluorescent background. Remember the referee will always be willing to answer any questions you may have however his/her decision is final.
  • Should a time or penalty be queried after the event, this must be submitted within 24 hours of the race. A review panel will meet 48 hours after the event and all decisions will be final.
  • All decisions are final. The race director and race referee have the final say on all decisions and outcomes. For safety purposes the race director and race referee have the ability to implement and introduce laws and rules on the day.
  • Please make sure you are at the start line, 30 minutes prior to event start.
  • Marshals are only a reference.  It is your responsibility to check junctions and know the course.
