Can I listen to music or wear headphones whilst participating?

Unfortunately, we do not allow participants to ride with headphones in. The safety of our participants is paramount and through wearing headphones you will be less likely to hear other competitors or marshals, which could become a hazard on route. By not wearing headphones you will also be able to enjoy the experience more and soak up the encouragement from spectators. If you are seen to be wearing headphones on event day you will be kindly asked to remove them and if caught with them during the competition you will be disqualified.
