E NEWS 11 FEBRUARY 2016
The rain stayed away for the first of our Off Road Triathlons held on
Sunday at East Point. This resulted in participants going
home much cleaner than in previous years. I think some found
this disappointing!
Race Director Aaron
Caden, assisted by the guys from Cycle Zone, set a
challenging but fun course and there was a collective air of achievement
present at the finish line!
Big shout out to Aaron,
Kevin Wells, Nic
French, Emma
Winterflood, Shaye
Hatty, Tina
Sanderson, Graeme
Parsons, Kylie
Scholz, Benita Bitner, as well as all those other
fantastic volunteers who assisted at this event. We really appreciate the
time & effort put in by all our volunteers which enables our members
to continue to enjoy our events.
