Navigation
Nowadays, many Sportive riders have a Garmin or similar GPS navigation device. We have provided direct links to Garmin Connect and gpx file download. Other file formats can be generated through the plotaroute link. There will also be clear directional arrow signs for everyone to follow along all routes.

There are also mobile phone apps available for those that don't use a GPS cycle computer. We've been told that Komoot works well as it includes voice navigation and ride tracking.

Timings for Sportive Rides

Timing
We do offer chip timing on our Sportive rides. However, capturing a ride on a personal GPS device will probably be more accurate if it's set to pause recording when stationary at refreshment stops.

Chip Timings will be available directly from ResultsBase via  the link below..
