Notes:


1.  This is a non-drafting event.  Please make sure you know what that means by having another look at the basic Rules of Triathlon.  

2.  Roads are open for this event so we need you to obey all traffic regulations, including stopping if any traffic lights are RED.  This is very important so that we can continue to obtain permits to conduct our events right here in town.
 

CLUB TRI GEAR ORDER:

1.  You have been asking for it, so here's our club tri gear order for 2015.

2.  We need all orders in by Wednesday next week to allow us to collate & place order for a delivery time of late October.

3.  We rarely have any stock items, so do think ahead about your training and racing needs.

4.  If you are racing away, our kit is very recognizable and will get you lots of cheers!

5.  Member benefit:  All items are sold at cost, with the club subsidising the delivery charges.

6.  More info & how to order here

CLUB TEE SHIRTS:

1.  Our supply is getting lower and we are down to the last few small men's sizes and some of the women's sizes are also low.

2.  Our cotton tees will be on sale again at our event on Sunday.  $15 each or bargain 3 for $40.

3.  Bring some $$$ and see Robyn after you finish.

2.  Our club has applied for School Voucher provider status.  If successful, juniors will be able to claim against tri gear.

3.  So that we have an idea of what to order for juniors, can you please let Mel know by email darwintriclubjunior@gmail.com  what you are likely to require. Junior tri tops $45, Junior tri shorts $55

PIC OF THE WEEK:

Robyn
