Competition:

As we are approaching the end of the 2018/2019 season with only 8 races plus the club champs to go.  It’s about time we looked at re-designing our club uniform.

We have decided to run a competition, with it being open to all members and their families to come up with a new design to commemorate 30 years as a club.

There is only one rule- if you choose to include the Twin Towns flower, YOU must retain the existing colours.

Other than that its open slather. All entries will be submitted to the committee who will select a few which will be presented online for judging and the winning entry will received a tri-suit.

Ideally, we would like to have a design chosen before the commencement of the next season (September 2019), so put on your thinking caps and start designing. Standby for further updates.

Marshals:

Today we had Scott Wilden up on Fraser, with Rhys Campbell at Woodlands RAB and Jo Colja at Lochlomond RAB and next week will be Jeff Murray (one of our weekly sponsors) up on Fraser, Judy Murray at Woodlands RAB and Rowena Smith at Lochlomond RAB.

Random Draw Winners:

Katie Frew – Coast Cyclery, Scott Styman – Therapies on Boyd, Johnathon Davis – Tweed Coast Chiropractic, and the man who forgot to bring a helmet to a triathlon Warren Copping –Twisted Fig

Registration is now open for next week!
