Timing and Standards

Being a cyclosportive, the Devil Ride will not be run as a race and we will not be awarding prizes or trophies.

However, that doesn’t mean that you won’t get an accurate time or be unable to compare yourself with others. We will be issuing each rider with an electronic timing chip at registration that will be recorded at the start, finish and at the three feed stops – so you will get a time for the entire ride and four splits.

PLEASE NOTE: All timing chips must be returned at the Finish. Riders will be charged by SPORTident for any missing chips at £23 per chip.

Individual times, with splits, will be given to riders immediately at the finish. The full list of riders’ times will be posted up in the event centre during the day and on this website within 24 hours.

We will award certificates at the finish with Gold, Silver and Bronze standards.

The Gold standard for the Devil Ride is:

	Under 18 years	18-39 years	40-49 years	50-59 years	Over 60 years
Men	6h34m	6h12m	6h34m	6h58m	7h23m
Women	6h18m	6h34m	6h58m	7h23m	7h58m

The Silver standard for the Devil Ride is:

	Under 18 years	18-39 years	40-49 years	50-59 years	Over 60 years
Men	7h33m	7h07m	7h33m	8h00m	8h29m
Women	8h00m	7h33m	8h00m	8h29m	8h58m

All other finishers will be awarded Bronze. The standards use a formula from French cyclosportives that takes into account both distance and altitude gains.
