For rider safety we do have a cut-off time of 4pm, but this provides ample time and should allow many types of rider to enjoy Bike Oxford. The below table shows the approximate speeds needed to complete the different routes within the time allowed.
At the start, riders set off in pods of about 20 after a briefing. There will be a female only pod for each of the ride distances for anyone who would prefer this.
There are toilet facilities at the start/finish and at the feed stations. Period products will be available in all female toilets and from female members of Iconic Cycling Events Staff/volunteers.
There are changing facilities at the start and finish and a bag drop at the start.
Please get in touch if there are any other facilities or assistance that you would find useful and would aid your participation and enjoyment of Bike Oxford
