If you are thinking about taking part in this type of competition for the first time you may find Time Trialling for Beginners a useful guide.

Competitors are strongly advised to wear a helmet that meets an international safety standard during this event.  All riders under the age of 18 must wear a properly affixed helmet which must be of hard/soft shell construction and should conform to a recognised standard.
