GPX Timing — For Event Directors

Your riders already have
the GPS data. Make it official.

GPXTiming turns a rider's own GPS file — from Strava or a direct upload — into a validated, official result. No mats. No chip rental. No timing crew. Just a submission flow simple enough that riders finish uploading before they've finished their post-ride snack.

Rider Experience

Why riders actually submit — without you chasing them down

A timing system only works if riders use it without complaint. This is the part that matters most.

01 · Connect

One-tap Strava Connect

Already recorded on Strava? Tap connect, pick the activity, done. No exporting, no file hunting.

02 · Or Upload

Drag-and-drop GPX, no account needed

Riders who skip Strava — or recorded a multi-day event across several device files — just drop the file in. Same validation, either path.

03 · Instant Link

The submission link appears the moment they register

No digging through email days later. Register, ride, submit — the link is right there on the confirmation screen, even for walk-up riders registering after the fact.

04 · Any Device

Built for a phone at the finish line

Fully mobile-responsive from the start — not a desktop tool riders have to remember to use later.

Director Tools

What you get on your side of the leaderboard

Rigorous validation, automatically — without you eyeballing tracker dots at midnight.

Automatic corridor validationCourse integrity
Every submission is checked against your actual route — on course, the whole way, within tolerance — with no manual track-by-track review.
Smart gap detectionJudgment, not just rules
A multi-hour gap only flags as suspicious if it's actually suspicious. An overnight stop on a bikepacking route doesn't trigger a false alarm.
Segment & neutral-zone timingAid-station formats
Only the timed sections count. Rest stops are free, exactly like riders expect.
Strava-verified segmentsMatches what riders already see
Link a segment to an existing Strava Segment ID and matched riders get Strava's own official time, with a visible verified badge — falling back to our own detection quietly if Strava's matching misses someone.
One map, one clickResolve anything fast
Every flagged submission comes with the rider's actual track. Correct a start point, override a segment, approve or disqualify — logged, in two clicks.
Full audit trailDefensible results
Every submission records exactly how, when, and by whom it arrived. If a result is ever questioned, the paper trail already exists.

Built for the courses
timing mats can't reach.

A 150-mile point-to-point gravel race or a self-supported bikepacking route has no mat to rent. GPXTiming isn't the cheaper option there — it's often the only rigorous one. And it complements the live GPS tracking you already trust for safety, rather than replacing it.
