LAST UPDATED THURSDAY 4th FEBRUARY 8.55am
Just cause we know you like to know we wanted to keep you in the loop ...
Entries: coming along nicely - 55% of entries received to date and now 2 Para-triathletes entered.
Transition: CONFIRMED - car park adjacent to the caravan park, just north of the Surf Life Saving Club.
Swim Course: CONFIRMED - beach start from the side of Cudgen Creek out and around 3 bouys and back North of
the Surf Club. Be aware if the seas are TOO HIGH and DANGEROUS - you may be up for a 500m beach sprint
or a creek swim if possible.
Ride Course: FLAT & FAST - some final touhes to this but at the moment it is heading north on Marine Parade from transition. Follow the road to the "T" intersection at Chinderah Bay Dr and turn left , continue and turn right to the dead end - U turn and back you go! 3 Laps for the Almost Olympic.
Run Course: South you go - from transition down Marine Parade and you follow the water... past the lifeguard tower, onto the board walk. There are a few things to be given final ticks from authorities, but this is to give you an idea to start with.
Registration: Opens 5am Sunday and closes 6.15am when the first race goes off. There is a possibility that bikes can be registered for transition on the Saturday afternoon but this is NOT YET confirmed. Will keep you posted on this one.
Parking: There is limited parking at this stage but where you can park so far is: Jack Bayliss Park and the grass land on Marine Parade - but note you won`t be able to get your car out until the last cyclist is finished and you will have to be in by 6am. There is limited parking at the Surf LIfe Saving Club. Alternatively if you park in the side streets adjacent and surrounding Marine Parade. More information coming soon.
Accommodation: There is plenty of great accommodation options in Kingscliff so think about making a weekend of it. Bookings can be made through QSMSports or give Tweed Tourism a call with the staff there more than happy to help.
Keep an eye out on the website for more updates as we count down!
