Kingswood Triathlon Club

If your name is not here please send your membership fees to Jer as soon as poss.

The 2009 club committee stood down at the recent AGM, and were sucessfully reinstated. 

Rich James - Chairman

Jer Dale - Treasurer

Eric 'the eel' Downey - Secretary

Lee Francis - Social Secretary

On Sunday Sunday 14th February, Sunday 28th February, Sunday 14th March and then every Sunday thereafter. Swimming, running, cycling or just wanting to improve your ‘fitness’ – these sessions are for you…

These sessions will be held at KLC in the main sports hall from 9:00 to 10:00

Still also running are the Wednesday evening sessions 18.30-19.30 at Downend Boxing Club, Northview (off Soundwell Road). – Cost £1.00 for each session.

Great News – Yes and No – in the process of the refirb the pool will be reduced from 33m to 25m!  A sad loss to us all as we have grown to love the pool as it is.  We have until April 2010 to make your comments count.

If you can please check out https://consultations.southglos.gov.uk/inovem/consult.ti/system/calendar and see the proposal in full and have your say.  A bit like voting don’t moan about it – act while you can use the form to let them hear your voice!

Well done to Ed for spotting that there was no provision for any cycle stands.  Ed and I had a discussion with Ken – the acting manager of KLC and he would see what he can do even if it is not on the plan.

Come to Kingswood Leisure Centre on Thursday 25th February for 19:30 -20:30 for swim video analysis.  Our Coach James Eastwood, ’Beasty’ to his mates, will video our stroke and hopefully provide a copy of this to allow us to see what we are doing wrong!

We have an added bonus in that Trevor Kingdom of Black Sheep Sports will be visiting us to swim with us and then after the session from 20:45 give us a demo on Scott trainers -  check out the details http://www.3-to-tri.co.uk/run_store_14.html  he has offered some great club offers – these shoes generally retail for over £100 each

From Lee,

Matt R  has checked with the supplier to get prices for a new order of KIT clothing.  He can’t confirm the EXACT unit prices until we place a firm order due to exchange rates and delivery charges, but the prices quoted are as close as I can estimate.

As you can see, the Euro exchange rate is not doing us any favours and the items are quite a bit more expensive than the last time we ordered them…

S/S Cycle Top (1/4 Zip) = £32
Bib Shorts = £50
Tri Suit = £75

Would everyone interested in ordering clothing please send me an e-mail with their requests by 1st March (please note new e-mail address below). He can then determine if we have enough interest on each item to place an order and will advise of final prices and a delivery date.

matthewrobinson23@googlemail.com or use the message board to put up swaps if your item was too big/small etc http://kingswoodtri.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=CrossCountry&action=display&thread=443

Meet at Clock Tower Page Park at 9:am – Steve Light to lead ride – Tea stop in Cheddar!  Have fun
