You download the GXP file onto your Garmin so you know where you're going. The file will be supplied via email before the event.
You pick the start time based on what avg speed you expect to ride at.
You complete the ride and have fun doing so.
There's no need to sign-on on the day, just get going when you're ready.

Staggered Starts Times:
9.00 - 9.30am - I'm just aiming to get round
9.30 - 10.00am - I'll push on but I'm not fast.
