Rules & Ride Manual
Safety and rider wellbeing are our highest priorities throughout the Tour of Fiji. While this is a timed cycling event, it is not a professional race, and there is no prize money on the line. We ask riders to approach each stage with care, consideration, and a spirit of enjoyment rather than pure competition. The experience is designed to be challenging, memorable, and rewarding, but always within a framework that protects everyone on course and allows you to savour the ride. A full Ride Manual and Rulebook will be available to download below.
