It is important that every Andorra Epic rider fully understands the rules. We encourage all riders to carefully read through these before starting their training, refer back to them during training and have a last read-through before rolling up to the start line. Ignorance of the rules will not be considered as a mitigating factor.

READ THE RULES
  • It is compulsory for both riders of the same team to wear identical cycling kit (Rule 6.4). Rain jackets (etc.) do not need to be identical.  ​
  • Riders of the same team need to be within 2 minutes of each other at all times (Rule 8).  ​
  • Maximum Stage Times are determined according to the length of each stage and the terrain to be covered (Rule 15.1).​
  • The Race Director may designate intermediate cut-off points which must be reached by specific times on each stage. Teams will be removed from the course should they not reach a cut-off point by the specified time (Rule 15.4).
  • ​
  • A rider that does not finish a stage in the maximum stage time is allowed to start the next stage but will not be an official finisher (Rule 16).  ​
  • If a team member does not finish a stage within the maximum stage time, but the other team member does, the latter can still become an official finisher (Rule 16)​
  • A rider is not allowed to receive any outside assistance from supporters (Rule 23).  ​

  • Rules of the road need to be adhered to at all times.
  • In Andorra, cars drive on the right side of the road.
  • As there are no road and / or trail closures, please note that the road needs to be shared with motorists, pedestrians, and animals.
  • Reduce speed when riding through towns and keep an eye on pedestrians and animals that may cross your path.
  • Do not cut corners (oncoming traffic!).
  • Follow signage instructions as well as verbal instructions from marshals.
