-Well I think the race starts at 10am, but I’m not sure. So lets say 1:00 ish. I am assuming that many of you will stop by on your way home form the race (Beamsville is between Burlington and St. Catharines) I will revise the time if start time is different.
-We live at 4251 Stadelbauer Dr.
PLEASE RSVP..a few drop ins is fine….but too many leaves us unprepared.

Hope to see you there!!

Just some reminders about the Yoga course that some of you have signed up for. 

Payment is to be given to Devin by either dropping off at the Niagara Falls YMCA, bringing to the BRICK on Thursday night, or coming to the swim/bike/core on Sunday.  This money is due by Feb 9th please.

Please  when dropping off money at the YMCA, just ask the staff to put in my mail box (sealed envelope).  You do not have to “sign up” with the YMCA staff.

Finally, the yoga course is being held at the Yoga by Sarah Studio.  Not the YMCA.

If you cannot make it to the times listed, please email me and I will give directions to my house to drop off your money.  drichardson@ymcaofniagara.ca

Please let me know if you have questions.

There are 3 spots left…

Thanks

Devin

TrYForce and Yoga by Sarah are teaming up to offer our members an 8 week yoga class.  The class is scheduled for Monday nights starting at 7:00pm until 8:10pm.  The start date is Feb 13th and will run until April 9th (no class on Family Day.  There will be class on Easter Monday).

The cost is $20.00 for all 8 classes.  The Yoga will be specific to Multisport Athletes.  There is only room for 25 people.  So, this is first come first serve.

To reserve your spot, please email Devin at drichardson@ymcaofniagara.ca  Your $20.00 needs to be receieved by Feb 9th at the latest.  If I do not receieve your money, you will be bumped from the list and someone else will get the spot.  I will confirm everything via email.

Finally, there is no sharing of your spot.  Example (Darlean and JoAnn cannot share a spot and go every other week).

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks

Devin

Please watch for the post that will be coming soon in regards to when we will be offering a yoga night for TrYForce members only.

Thanks

For logistics purposes, and maximum efficiency for each participant, the session can only accommodate 8 members.  The cost is $10.00 per person, this includes a DVD.  If we have more people interested, we will look at more dates in February.

This is a first come first serve booking process.  Please email Devin at
drichardson@ymcaofniagara.ca to register.

Thanks

In addition, some of you may have noticed the name change from Ontario Association of Triathletes (OAT)  to Triathlon Ontario. Their website has changed so if any of you have links to that site you’ll need to change it to the new one.  We have changed the link on our site so you can access it there. Why am I telling you this? Triathlon Ontario has now gone to an on-line registration process, which is partially the reason for TrYForce changing our process as well. As in the past, to get the club sanctioned registration rate, you must join a sanctioned club first. If you join TO as an individual, it will cost you $50 however as a member of a sanctioned club, only $40. We will inform everyone about the process to join TO as a member of a sanctioned club once our process has been completed. In the mean time if you go ahead a join as an individual, then join our club, you will not be refunded the $10, so please be advised.

I am pleased to announce that Liberty Bicycles, of St. Catharines, is now an official sponsor of TrYForce so please join me in welcoming them to our “family”. I am very excited about what Liberty can offer the club and our members, as well as to the triathlon community in general. They have some forward thinking concepts and I am extremely happy they have asked TrYforce to participate together with them in this direction. Liberty has already hosted a TrYForce members only bike fitting seminar, which was well received and attended, and have scheduled winter season trainer (spin) sessions, open to the public, in their store (see their website for details).

As was first announced back in June, Liberty will continue to offer a 10% discount to all TrYForce members on all purchases, with the exception of bikes and labour. You will find Liberty’s prices to be comparable with other bike shops in the Niagara region as well as most online retailers however, as a sponsor, they will do their best to offer our members the best possible price. So go in and visit them at 2 Bond Street in St. Catharines, and ask for Kyle, or visit them on line at http://www.libertybicycles.com/. Kyle Rempel is a member of our club and has been active in our Sunday rides over the summer, he and the staff at Liberty will take excellent care of you!

So far we have approximately 55 to 60 who have indicated they will be attending.
