THE WAYPOINTS
IN-BETWEEN
Waypoints will be landmarks, buildings, views and sights, a time and location stamped photo is required at each of these points. Ideally we want your bike or you or both in the photo too, get practicing those selfies. Cheese!
EVERY EVENT
HAS RULES
We have some rules as you'd expect, they are clearly laid out on our rules page and should give you all the details you need to know, if it isn't covered in the rules it's either because it's something we have forgotten or it's maybe in the trusty FAQ's.
Any extra questions you have, please send them over to enter@abikerace.co.uk
