The 2020/21 series features three duathlons and six triathlons to be held between August and April. With race entry numbers limited to comply with COVID-19 NSW Government Health restrictions, the safest way for WTC members to confirm their entry in each of the monthly races is by purchasing a series entry. All WTC members are entitled to one free club race as part of their renewal, which has been automatically incorporated into the price of the series. Those who purchase a series entry will, however, be expected to volunteer at one of the club races throughout the year. Click here to register! We are very excited to announce four time trial (TT) events on the challenging West Head course. These races are scheduled for:
Riders from both clubs will be despatched from 0630 at 30 second intervals. Athletes can choose between a 24km or 42km course. As the roads will be closed, it is encouraged that competitors cycle to the event, or alternatively park near Duffys Forest to ensure exiting from the site does not impact other competitors. Registration will open next week (beginning 13th July) and close on the Wednesday prior to each event to allow sufficient notification of start times and race numbers. This event will be conducted in accordance with a COVID-safe plan. Competitors will be breifed prior to the event to ensure the safety of competitors and volunteers. Registration and more detailed information will be available shortly on our Race page.

After discovering late last week that work was about to commence to install 12 speed humps along the popular cycle route, our committee swung into action - gaining a copy of the plans, enlisting the help of Manly Warringah Cycle Club and jointly lobbying to ensure cyclists using the area would not be impacted by the proposal. With the support of Councillor Sarah Grattan, Northern Beaches Council listened to both parties' concerns and made the sensible decision to only use the flat top speed humps similar to those pictured, a great result for all recreational cyclists. Warringah Tri Club has been successful in receiving $1500 from the recent round of Local Sports Grants!
The grant forms part of our Club Race Upgrade works to improve safety for competitors and reduce barriers to entry. The committee is continuing to work hard behind the scenes on a number of initiatives to:
