Try to fit all your gear in a large bag that can be worn as a rucksack. This will make it easier to organise everything and will also mean you can cycle to/from transition instead of having to walk. Boxes or sports bags with a single strap are not recommended. If you are new to the club and don’t have all of the kit above, don’t worry about it, come along with what you have.

Look forward to see you all there!
