Hi All,
Thank you to those who have already submitted orders for our awesome tri suits, shirts and swimmers. When will the next order be? Who knows, so make sure you take advantage of the opportunity now.
Order closes this Sunday so get yours in online now at https://www.registernow.com.au/secure/Register.aspx?ID=4795
Please don’t wait until Monday and then ask if it is too late to put an order in, the answer will be “Yes it is”. If you have deleted the size chart or the Q&A, email and it can be forwarded to you again.
