Talked with Mike at Better Bikes this week and he said they got in a nice supply of Profile Design’s tri cloths (tanks, shorts, women’s suits, etc.) along with Adomos saddles.  He also just got a new Felt B16 (size 56) and an AR5.  If you are looking for a higher end bike, Mike is selling his personal B10 (size 51) if you are interested.  Better Bikes has a great supply of tri and road gear, so swing by and take a look at what they have.  Remember to bring you KTC membership card to enjoy our sponsorship discount on bikes, gear and mainatainence.

It was a great weekend of racing in Galveston.  Many of our club members raced the Lonestar Sprint and the Ironman 70.3.  Congratulations to all of you who competed!  It was hot and windy (lots of sunburns), but it was a great first race of the season.  A special congrats to Annie Irvin who completed her first ever outdoor triathlon… and rocked it!  Any other club members have their first race this weekend?

We would love to hear your race report and upcoming plans, so take a few minutes and leave us a comment on this post about your race and/or your upcoming plans for racing.

Join us this Saturday for our second duathlon at Duessen Park.  We will begin the event promptly at 8:15am, so come early to hang out, set up your transition area, etc.  Like always, this event will be a 2 mile run / 12 mile bike / 2 mile run.  All abilities are welcome.  This is a very relaxed event.  We just want to offer a place everyone to get into the race mentality while having fun with friend.  We will be meeting at Pavilion 11.

After the duathlon we are planning on hanging out for lunch at the park, so bring the family along with some food and drinks.  It is looking like it is going to be a great day to be outside!
