From 12th to 20th of June 600 intrepid cyclists are travellng all the way from John O'Groats to Lands End and Race Timing Systems are timing them. This is called the Deloitte Ride Across Britain. Each day riders are checked out, set off to ride around 115 miles before completing the day at the final check point.
This is a non competitive sportive event meaning the times are used for safety and interest rather than racing performance. That's not to say they're not accurate. We're using technology capable of timing cyclists to the hundreth of a second. We know which state each athlete is on at any point in the ride.
These results will not be published to our website and instead area available via enquiry to the Deloitte Ride Across Britain team.
