downesy68 1,085 Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 So while everyone south of Port Macquarie are shutting up shop for the winter following IMOZ, those of us that live further north still have heaps of options for races over the next few months. One of the pleasures of living up here is we can literally race all year round in lots of different places and covering all the distances. Here are some off the top of my head. Byron Bay May 9th - Olympic distance (more or less) Tri Fraser Coast May 17th - Olympic distance Coral Coast Tri June 7th - Olympic distance Ironman & 70.3 Cairns June 14th - IM & 70.3 Townsville Tri Festival June 27th & 28th - various up to Olympic distance Yeppoon Triathlon Festival August 1st & 2nd - various up to Olympic distance Rainbow Beach Double Triathlon August 22nd & 23rd - Double sprint (Sat pm, Sun am) So, lots of choices of great racing. No wonder Queenslanders are so good at triathlon! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Ex-Hasbeen 8,122 Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 True, but you'll still be in Brisbane Correct. But you gotta love the view from the back door in the afternoon. That's one of Brisbane's favourite rides in the background, Mt Glorious. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Looks lovely Either that's a very small mountain or it's a very long way away, and your beer is about to slide off of the table, better drink up! Link to post Share on other sites

clarkey 311 Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) Is Tri fraser coast still on? no buzz, facebook dead. any start list? We are down at the Urangan Pier setting up the race from after lunch once the local markets are done. There is no start list online but the entries are currently sitting at +200, you can still come down and enter at the registration tent anytime this afternoon.
