What Is Cycle Sportive Chip Timing and How Does It Work?

Added by admin | Tuesday 21st of January 2025

Cycle sportive chip timing uses RFID transponder chips to accurately measure the time it takes for each rider to complete a bike race. The chips are attached to the rider's handlebars or seat post and are designed to cross timing points in the best orientation. 

How it works

• Riders wear the chips during the race 
• The chips cross timing points, which are detected by antennas 
• The chips send a signal to a timing system, which records the time 
• The timing system displays the results to competitors and spectators in real time

Features

• Live results: Results are displayed online or at the venue
• Live video: A live video of the finish line is available 
• Race certificates: Race certificates can be generated and emailed to participants 
• Disposable chips: The chips are disposable so there's no need to collect them after the race
