Well Guys its that time again for the annual Cycling Time trials to commence sponsored by Chain Driven Cycles.
The format will be a bit different this year with only 8 races run in two blocks of four, with a good break in between. This will allow the club members to peak early or later in the season depending on what your goals are.
You can do all eight races if you like (apart from the one you must marshall) but you can only score in the best five. Some races will be harder than others so to encourage you we are offering bonus points.
As usual there will be different categories and prizes for the best improvers over the course of the event and maybe a spot prize or two?
Time trialing is a really great way to improve your speed after a long winter of slow steady miles and builds on the duathlon series, so you’ll be fully prepared for the first race of the season.
The rules of engagement will be posted up on the web site www.sligotriathlon.ie in the next few days and entry will be via paypal only. Because of the logistics we cannot accept money on the night and you’ll have to be a Full or Affiliate member of Triathlon Ireland. Entry fee is only €20 (for upto 8 races) to cover the costs of prizes and safety equipment. There is no individual race entry charge and you must pay the lot up front and provide your TI number. This will allow us time to check TI numbers are valid, which you can appreciate takes time. The paypal link will be posted along with the rules of engagement on our main web site.
