CycleQuest, the details:

Options include
RoadQuest: checkpoints all accessible by road
TrailQuest: off-road checkpoints
FunQuest: easier routes, fewer points

Enter separately or as teams
Try it for fun, or compete against your friends or our All-time Rankings 

The aim of the event is to find and visit Checkpoints marked on our CycleQuest maps.
There are 30 Checkpoints in total. Each is marked on the map by a coloured circle.
When you find each Checkpoint, answer the question on your score sheet. 

Choose any combination of Checkpoints:

The 10 green are the easier FunQuest ones (Max. total of 200 points).
The 10 red are TrailQuest  off-road checkpoints (Max. total 460 points with bonuses).
The 10 blue are for RoadQuest, all visible from the road (Max. 460 with bonuses).

CycleQuest  has a 3 hour time limit.
Time penalties are 5 points deducted for every minute over the limit, so there is skill in choosing your route!

There are a few more rules and points penalties – we explain these before you set off.

Rankings are based on points, not times (within the 3 hours).
