The Huckleberry Festival Sprint Triathlon is Set for July 25th 2015. This is going to be a half mile swim, 11.7 mile bike ride with 3.5 miles of gravel, and a 5 k run.  We will start with the first wave of racers at 8:30 then the next every 5 min. Registration starts at 7am at Pilcher Creek Reservoir.

We want this event to be one for anyone that wants to join in. So we have opened this for individuals and teams of 2-3 people. You can one person for each leg or work it our for 2 people to have one do 2 legs and the other to do the one leg.

This is a Point to point race Everyone ending in North Powder. We will be doing total overall times. If you want your each leg times it will be up to you. Because this is a point to point race we will provide a bag with a name and or number on each bag to place your items in when you transition from swim to bikes. I will have it arranged to get them down to the end of the race. If you can it would be great to have your own arrangements to get picked up or to go get your rig from the starting point. If you have no option we can arrange a shuttle to get you back up there. We don't want anyone to be detoured for this reason.

The cost of our events is:

Register by June 10th:  Individuals $45        Teams $90

After June 10th: Individuals $55                Teams $100

Register by June 10th to be guaranteed a T-shirt.

Equipment requirements:

I am requiring that each contestant has a swim cap. please have it be in a light bright color. This is for personal safety in the water. We want to be able to spot everyone in the water and heaven for bid something happen help us to spot someone under the water.

You must have a bike helmet. By law and by my rules.

Please take in to consideration the 3.5 miles of gravel you will be biking in when you are choosing the bike you bring to ride.

We want this event to be fun and run smoothly. This will be an open course. Please obey the rules of the road and watch for cars. There is one bad corner and the down hill stretch. Please take note of it when you drive up to the starting point.

Please NO riding your bike out of or in to the Transition areas.
