We use timing chips on disposable self-adhesive ankle bands, body marking or temporary race number tattoos, helmet numbers, bike frame numbers, wrist bands, and bib numbers to ensure we keep track of you during the race and provide you accurate results.
Wear the ankle band on your left ankle and attach your bike frame number to your bike before checking into the bike transition area.
