All lean, mean and not so lean, mean machines,



Due to Bernie lecturing fellow legal eagles about fraudulent activities, Andy teaching folk how to ride stationary bikes and Ian P increasing noise pollution at his Choral activities, this Sat's session has been postponed to 2 o'clock. Details below repeated for new members.



This weekend will be our first session involving distance instead of time so let's have some patience from the lean, mean machines awaiting us not so lean and mean to finish. The idea is to have this one Pre Season and another in around November Post Season.



Course will be from usual starting point, 2 laps along the flat from Starting point (see attached 'park') to Tung Chung and return to the layby just past the bridge before the road goes up to Disney - about 41 km. Needless to say, it will be non drafting.

Run will hopefully (If Bern has arrived in time to spray paint turn arounds) have two options: Either from Transition straight along gently undulating road towards Disney for 5km and back - will need to carry liquid; OR two laps of - Trans to Tung chung and back (2.8K) plus a further 1.1 K towards Disney (2.2K) - this one involves a slight hill but with three passes of Transition, can leave water there.

Expected time of slowest (yours truly) hopefully will be around 1:30 for bike and 1:15 for Run depending on yellow object in sky!!!

looking for good turnout with both Ians, Ziad, Heidi, Andy P, Chris H to name just a few!! For those newbies worried about their times, note, yours truly MIGHT get you on the bike but you will not be able to run slower w/o your walking sticks!!

Note: no shops there at all so bring sufficient liquid/food for bike and run. (ice cooler for run liquids while biking is an idea)



Don't forget the start of HKG's best Race series next week at the Rep Bay Splash 'n Dash - (revolution-asia.com)



Keep tri-ing
