General
Rules
Note: All International Triathlon Union (ITU) rules will
apply.
SWIM:
1
. The swim course will be closed according to the race distance in which you are participating. Participants still in the water after
this time will be disqualified and will not be permitted
to continue in the event.
2
. We will notify on race day if wetsuits are permitted.
3. Self-seed yourself in the water. Let the fast swimmer
leave before you. A wait of 30 seconds will assure you plenty
of room. What's 30 seconds when you're racing for 1 - 2hrs?
4. All Relay swimmers, men and women, must depart with the Relay Start.
BIKE:
1. There is no warming up on
the bike before the race.
2. You may not ride your bike in the transition area.
3. There will be a repair station on the course. You
may not have any other help in repairing a mechanical problem
on your bike other than our official repair mechanics.
4. If you need repairs to your bicycle during the
race, you can stop at the bike repair tent located just
past the hair pin turn, or you can ask one of the motorcycle
outriders to bring a bike mechanic to you on the course.
AT NO TIME, and for no reason, may your bike be transported
by someone else.
5. When you enter the bike course move gradually to
the inside of the Circuit. As you complete your 4th lap
and are preparing to exit the bike course, make sure you
are on the right side of the course, well in advance of
the exit so that you do not have to cross other cyclists.
6. The Cyclist must wait for the swimmer in the RELAY CORRAL located by the TA swimmers' entrance. This is where you will exchange the computer chip.
