We’ll be running a modified schedule on Nov 21st. Beginner race and Austin Tri Cyclist Open Race will go off per usual schedule, but the Intermediate MTB & Tom Mahnke Realty Intermediate CX will be combined into one long (45ish min) relay starting at 7:00. Relay teams will consist of two racers alternating laps. One person will do the MTB course and one person will do the CX course. $10 per team ($5/person) & BYOB (Bring your own baton, feel free to be creative). If you don’t have a partner don’t worry, we’ll assign you one at the time of the race.
See you Tuesday!
