Where do I find details of a TT route if know the code?

[Fletch456]

Is there a way of finding out a TT route if you know the code? Since they are all coded I thought there may be a central store but I've failed to find it if there is one at the following websites and that of British Cycling. Unfortunately not all club websites do a good job of informing you of the route for a course. thanks

There are brief descriptions of each course in the CTT handbook. Some are vaguer than others. Testers tend to get to know their local courses and others that have a reputatin for fast times. Looking at previous results can give an idea of how easy/fast a course is. Otherwise, it's down to contacting the organiser and asking.

I just slap the code into google

I normally do like Montage.

Also:

Join Timetrailling forum and search / ask there.

I put up a few of the local ones to me on Bikely under the course code, I don't know whether anyone else does this but it could be worth a search.

You could post the code here and see if anyone knows it. Never know.

It depends.

The ones for open events are usually on the CTT site and the time trial forum. However, courses just used by clubs can be a bit harder to track down. Sometimes they get re-numbered, but people keep on using the old numbers.

Google is a good idea.

Sometimes they are on bikely

If you can't track it down, then a post on the time trial forum, or an email to a local club, would be the best ways to find someone who does know it.

On most club sites or the CTT site you can work out the exact route or the local racers will tell you.

Thanks guys. Sometimes you forget the simplest, like Google.
