Hi All,
London is rapidly becoming a distant memory and I'm starting to emerge from the fog of jetlag, so guess that means it's time for an E News !
There has been such a lot happening over the past 5 weeks I won't even attempt to recap. Results from all the local events, including ours, are posted on the various websites and I've checked a number of those. Wow, our members are everywhere and often heading up the results ... well done !
A big thank you to all those who helped out at our events on 17 July and 7 August. RD's Jason Jones and Liam Johnson got good raps and they were supported hugely by a great number of volunteers. If you competed, I hope you took a couple of minutes to thank those volunteers who supported you on the day.

2. ENTRY CLOSES 9PM TONIGHT, Wednesday 17 AUGUST, no late entries accepted.
3. If you are travelling down to Lake Bennett on race morning, please factor in plenty of travel time. Registration closes at 6.30am sharp, so please be on site in plenty of time to have completed racking, check in, race shirt collection, body marking etc before 6.30am. You may find a torch helpful.
4. Before you leave home, make sure you check you have all your gear packed - it's way too far to dash back for a forgotten helmet, shoes or goggles (I've lost count of the number of people who have forgotten crucial items in the past).
5. If you aren't booked at the Resort you need to park outside (we are using part of the resort carpark as transition).
6. On the way in, it will help if you pass the Resort gates before parking. Please consider the safety of fellow cyclists and runners prior to parking and ensure you park well off the road.
7. A bottle exchange table will be provided on the bike course near resort turnaround. It is the athletes responsibility to organise clearly marked bottles and to STOP and collect if you wish to exchange bottles. No outside assistance allowed.
8. Think about taking some water to Lake Bennett as some people don't like the taste of local supply.
9. Presentations are expected to take place at Lake Bennett at 12 noon. Any changes will be announced at race brief.
