It was fairly quiet at Twinnies Tri this morning with many of our regulars resting before the Kingy Tri which is on tomorrow morning. We had around 45 competitors out enjoying a Saturday morning hit out.
Sitting in the timing chair this morning under the guiding eye of Caitie, I noticed a number of athletes undoing and removing helmets before racking their bikes. A reminder that your bike must be racked before touching your helmet.
Next week Intermediate competitors will begin at 6.15am instead of 6.45am. This decision was made because the roads have become a lot busier so hopefully with the earlier start it will be quieter.
Good luck to all Twinnies members who are competing in the Kingy Tri tomorrow. Hope the smoke clears, the wind drops and the weather is cool!
