James 171 Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 I'm starting to plan this years race at Lakeside so here is an early date claimer. It's the week after Cairns and so far does not clash with any other events. Will be much the same as last year, except we are trying a Saturday afternoon race and to win the cash, you have to race two times and the combined times will determine the overall winners. Hope you can make it this year Lostkiwi Moreton Bay Grand Prix - Saturday June 14th 2014 Moreton Bay Regional Council – Major Sponsor Date: Saturday June 14th 2014 Lakeside International Raceway Lakeside Road, Kurwongbah, 4503 Race Details Lakeside Raceway gates open at 11.00 am Registration & Numbering opens: 11.00 am Short course registration & numbering closes: 12.10 am Short course briefing: 12.20 pm Short course start: 12.30 pm Long course registration & numbering closes: 1.15 pm Long course briefing: 1.30 pm Long course start: 1.45 am Prizes & Trophies Male & Female Combined times of both short and long races will determine overall places and prize money 1st $400 2nd $200 3rd $100 To make the racing a bit more interesting, there will be $20 primes for the male and female who is leading at the end of each leg in both the short and long race.

A2K 920 Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 "you have to race two times and the combined times will determine the overall winners". Sorry maybe I'm going senile Does this mean you have to race the short course then the long course? Which explains this? - Long Course & Short plus long $35.00 $45.00? Also what are the age groups? Sounds good as I was looking for a couple of Duathlons to do this winter. Link to post Share on other sites
Lostkiwi 150 Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) I've put it in the diary mate! Good idea having the afternoon time I reckon. Means the mums and dads can go to Saturday morning sports with the kids and then race. Hopefully I'll have some speed back in the legs by then.

Ruley 819 Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 if the date fits i'll be looking to move my duathlon form down south up north so bring it on! Link to post Share on other sites
downesy68 1,085 Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Keen to do this James. We haven't set the date for our June duathlon yet, so I'll look at putting it on the week after. See if we can get a few from up here down for it. Good luck. Link to post Share on other sites

Will be no extra registration fee than if you just want to race the long one Link to post Share on other sites
