2 Methods depending on courses and design constraints:

Gun Time

It's the official race time and is the time that the cyclist takes to complete the course from the time the gun was fired. Of course if you take say thirty seconds to cross the line this additional time is part of your race time.

Chip Time

This is the time that the cyclist actually takes from the time they crossed the start line (even if they took thirty seconds to do so from went the gun was fired) to the time they crossed the finish line. However, this time has no relevance to the results whatsoever and is used for information purposes only.

Please note that the chip time is not always available, should your start line be on a public road where it is not safe to have timing equipment or the course layout makes it impracticle to use then we will only be able to supply finish times.

How does it work?

Timing Chips

All competitors are allocated a timing chip and neoprene ankle strap at race registration, this is to be worn generally on the left ankle for the duration of the race, this will be collected in by event staff at the finish line it is essential to wear these on your ankle to wotk with the timing mats no chip no results.

Timing Mats

We place timing mats at key points that capture the times as competitors cycle across the mats, collectively these times are fed into our race HQ and formulated by our specialist software.

Results

All results can be viewed in real time whilst the event is taking place, competitors family and friends can view exact split timings by visiting the results station, generally located near the finish. We have a large LCD T.V. allowing competitors to enter there race number and see full results in real time on the T.V. Screen.

We also supply a small printer allowing competitors to print out there results and take them away.

All results will be available online a few hours after the event where competitors can search times and even print out professional event certificates.
