Let’s Go Get It Back!!‏

Hi to all OCTC Members

That’s right, let’s go get it back, the Interclub Trophy.  Cowra this Sunday 11 October 2015 is where we start the process to reclaim what should be rightfully ours, the Interclub Trophy.

I am sure there is still a bitter taste in everyone’s mouth from when we handed the trophy to Mudgee last year.  A slight adjustment to the scoring system will see a much fairer scoring process this season and the trophy return to its rightful home, Orange!

With our Australian Duathlon Representatives fit and ready to race and looking for a final hit out before they travel to Adelaide, our juniors primed for a big year and early form shown by many, the other clubs had better prepare themselves for the “Piranha’s” of 2015-16.

A long cold winter did not allow for a lot of training, however Sunday is a great opportunity to start your triathlon year and score valuable points for your club.  Grab your goggles, oil the bike chain and air out your shoes and get to Cowra on Sunday.

Let’s not underestimate who we are racing, Mudgee will be there in force to defend their title, Bathurst will be fast, Dubbo will be well represented and Cowra are trying to copy our successful training system and will be the big improvers.

Grand Prix format, 25m pool, flat bike course, warm conditions….  Sounds like an environment where Piranha’s thrive!

See you all in Cowra, and I look forward to a successful 2015-16 season.  Where we take the trophy back!!!

Cheers
