Transition clinic and Bottle Transfer Practice

This Saturday, April 30th,  we will host a short clinic about setting up your transition area for a triathlon. Perfect for the first timer and for the seasoned pro. Who knows what tips you might pick up, or even give!

In addition to the transitions, we will also be going over a special aspect of Half-Ironman racing, the bottle transfer on the bike. This is a perfect time to practice riding and grabbing a bottle in a safe and controlled environment. A MUST HAVE skill for anyone looking to do a long course event this season. 

Bring your bike and your gear (maybe you are already packing it up for the Nanticoke Sprint Triathlon on Sunday) and see how to set up your spot… and practice the water bottle handoff in addition (this is normally applicable to Half Iron and Full Iron distances, but some Olympics may include it)

The CLINIC WILL BE FROM 9am to 10am on Saturday, April 30th, 2016. There is a Facebook Event for the clinic as well. Please LIKE and SHARE!!  https://www.facebook.com/events/845966705530375/
