This isn’t a timed race—there are no official clocks or rankings—so it’s perfect for all fitness levels.

🗺️ The Course

• The route is clearly marked and mostly flat, making it beginner-friendly:

• Starts near the bike rental area

• Runs along paved paths and scenic island roads

• Passes beaches, shaded areas, and some behind-the-scenes parts of the island

• Includes water stations along the way

• It’s more about the experience than speed—you’ll get some great views you won’t see otherwise.

💡 Tips to Know Before You Go

• Go early → It gets HOT fast in the Bahamas ☀️

• Hydrate well → Use water stations along the route

• Wear sunscreen → Even in the morning

• Bring your phone/camera → Great photo ops

• You can do it on your own → If you miss the official time, you can still complete the course later and often still grab a medal (availability may vary)
