Finishers will be entitled to a £17 Tour de Ricky entry if they purchase the Finisher’s Roundel at the end (£5). We will be issuing Brevet Cards at the start to be completed as proof of passage.
There have been pre registrations on Strava, pre-registration is not compulsory but recommended as those pre-registering will be guaranteed a Brevet Card which will be required for Tour de Ricky qualification purposes. You can still turn up on the day unregistered and we should have some Brevet Cards available, but once they have been used up, there will be none available so it is safer to register in advance … we have already ordered the printing of the Brevet Cards and cannot now get extra ones added.
