Time Trials
The club organises a series of time trials throughout the season, typically between March and August. They are intended as a supplement to regular training, with the aim of helping measure your progress during the season, and giving you some race practice. The club has organised time trials since 1995, and since 2000 a standard format has been followed, involving a total of 12 time trials across the three disciplines.
The time trials for 2010 follow the same format as the last few years. There are twelve altogether, four at each discipline, with two at the Olympic distance and two at the sprint distance. The order follows two identical time trials and the dates are as follows:
