This year we were over subscribed and as always there was a huge amount of interest from Ottery St Mary School. It was a very hot evening and the length of the events was modified due to the heat to prevent heat exhaustion. There was fantastic support from the parents. Children were tested not only in their ability to ride their bike fast but they had to learn how to use their gears to get themselves going at speed and how to manoeuvre their bike around a series of cones. Everybody had to start off their bike so getting off and on the bike was another skill they had to factor in (good practise if you want to have a go at a triathlon).
