Prestige FAQ's
What sort of bike or terrain?
The terrain and ideal bike for each Prestige varies. Gravel is featured in many of Prestige routes and the recommended bike and tire choice for each is listed on the product page.
Can start/end locations be revealed (for accommodation purposes)
The start/end locations are included on the product page but please wait for confirmation of entry before booking accommodation. The specific location will be shared via email to participants at least one week prior to the event date.
Is it an A - B route or a loop?
This will vary for each event, but the majority of events start and end in the same location.
Are there benefits for RCC members?
Each event will reserve a portion of the capacity for RCC member teams so have a better chance of entry.
Is it possible to complete a Prestige ride solo? (or larger team)
The ride is designed for teams of four. This sets the Rapha Prestige apart from other ride formats. The fun is choosing your teammates and the challenge is to work together and cross the finish line together.
Will GPX be provided?
Yes. The route will be shared at least one week prior to the event date.
What is covered by the ticket price, if the event is unsupported & unmarshalled?
While the Prestige doesn’t follow a set route on closed route and regular feedstations, each event will offer different levels of support. This includes route planning support, emergency/first aid, a post-ride meal and some special takeaways.
The ticket price covers entry for 4 participants
How to swap a team member in an already registered team?
Please contact customer service who will be able to put you in touch with the event organiser to update their records and send an event participation waiver, which all team members are required to complete.
Tickets are non-refundable so please organise reimbursement directly with your teammates.
