Evening with 6-time IronMan World Champion, Mark Allen @ The New Vic Theater
Jan 22 @ 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm

What makes the difference between champions and those who 12186771_10153738743174222_3082846807529612123_o falter and go home with nothing more than memories? What inner drive or training strategy gives the very best their edge? Mark Allen describes the transformation from a strong showing into a winning competitive performance through his own personal experience in his years as a professional triathlete and 6-time winner of the Hawaii Ironman World Championship. His newest book, The Art of Competition, truly itself a work of art, will be available for purchase and signing by its author.

Due to insufficient interest (not enough RSVPs), the clinic is CANCELLED. We typically need at least 10 to carry out a clinic. If you still desire taking a bike skills clinic, contact the SB Bike Coalition for instruction. Click on the logo to the left. They're a great organization that have worked wonders for the cycling community of SB.

 

We as SB Tri Club want to get you out on the road, training, enjoying the beauty of where we live (and putting you at ease as to why you pay the rent).

So first things first, whether you're the most experienced rider or hesitant to get on your bike, become a more confident rider by attending our Bike Skills / Ride / Brunch at the East Beach Parking Lot. Look for the SB Tri Club Tent.

 

So grateful to Measure A and the SB Bike Coalition for facilitating the event. I will reiterate, all levels are welcome and encouraged.

Couple things before you show up:

  • Please show up promptly and ready to bike at 7:30am.
  • Complete this portion of the course online at bikeed.org.
    • Understand your rights & responsibilities as a driver operating a bicycle safely and legally on public roadways. Most importantly, develop the ability to identify unsafe traffic situations and make decisions that can prevent crashes and collisions.
  • Before showing up, print and fill out The Online Waiver and bring it to the event.

We'll have a ride following the clinic and group together according to our ride intentions. I will say yet again, all levels are welcome and encouraged.

Join us for brunch afterward at East Beach Grill! So come on out for 1 or all consecutive activities!
