The Golden Horseshoe ride is 100 miles (160km) over 2 days. A gold is awarded on achieving a speed faster than 12kph each day, with a heart rate below 55bpm, each day. The fastest Gold award in 2009 was David Yeoman, who averaged 12.4kph over both days. This means about 6.5 hours riding time each day, so about 13 hours over both days. Each day has a compulsory 50 minute halfway vet hold.
There were 3 'Golds' awarded in 2009 from a field of 12 starters. It is a tough ride.
