Requirements:
- ANSI approved bicycle helmet
- Bicycle with at least 3 gears (you don’t need a fancy tri bike! Come with your mountain bike, or ten speed.)
- Must be comfortable in the water. You do not have to have open water swimming experience but you must feel comfortable treading water and feel confident that you can swim up to 500 meters. You can go as slow as you want.
- You must have swim goggles and proper swimming attire. Speedos and wetsuits are NOT required. Guys, swimming in board shorts might be ok for surfing, but chafing is a big concern and you might want to buy some tri shorts or spandex instead.
Happy Hour:We will have an informal/optional happy hour or breakfast each week!
