Transition Area
Following the swim, athletes will run from the swim exit across Kinder Road to the transition area. (This is where they will pick up their bikes after the swim, and drop their bike off before the run. They will keep everything they need for the race here - helmets, shoes, etc.) Police/volunteers will stop traffic as needed to ensure the safety of athletes as they cross over to the transition.
We are fortunate to once again have the T Blocks racking system in place, which will allow all bikes to be standing up in transition, as opposed to hanging on a rack. We have many volunteers in transition to help racers adjust the blocks so that their bike tires fit securely in the rack, and will help get your athletes set up prior to the race, and will help them every step of the way after the swim and bike portions. Please note - NO PARENTS are permitted in transition - our volunteers will help with everything!
Parking
Parking for volunteers, participants and spectators will be at Kinder Farm Park. Please click here for a map showing an aerial view of the entire race, including parking, transition, etc.. We will have volunteers on site with flags directing entrants (racers, volunteers) to their parking locations.
