TRANSITION 2 (BIKE TO RUN)

Athletes will give their bike to a volunteer upon entering transition. The volunteers will rack the athlete's bike. Athletes will continue to retrieve their Bike to Run transition bags and entering their respective Change Tents (male & female).

There will also be portable toilets and an aid station in the transition area.

Transition times will not be included in your bike split.

Medical facilities will be available in the transition areas. Athletes requiring serious medical care at this point in the race will not be allowed to continue and officials will be notified of the athlete's race # and removal from the race. The Medical Director’s decision is final.

AQUABIKE FINISH

All Aquabike athletes will have the choice of crossing the official finish line in the Grand Stands if they so choose. The Aquabike finish line will be on the bike approximately 200m from transition. Athletes will then enter their own transition 2 entrance and rack their bikes. Once you cross the finish line on the bike 200m from transition that is when your official finish time is taken. If athletes pass you after this time they will not finish ahead of you in the standings.
