Yes, it is an absolute bummer that we’ve not been able to race the MultiSport Canada Triathlon Series or the fabulous Barrelman, but there’s nothing we can do about that. However, we will be toeing the start line again one day, so the training must continue, and that part of our lives is not cancelled. […]

If you can‘t make the 12 noon start time, you can still ride the course/event anytime after. It’s just that your final finish time […]
