Route to Aust

[Arjimlad]

What is one of them when it's at home? How many people will take part in it? And during working hours or after work?

Colliers Surveyors put it on each year and companies enter a team.

You can do it as either a normal triathlon, or a relay where there are separate swimmers, runners & riders (although we were only 2 so my pal had to do the swim AND the run !)...

Enjoyable 10 mile race route from Tockington to Pilning and back. I cracked it in under 30 mins which is what I wanted !

It is attended by mostly professional advice firms, surveyors, accountants, solicitors and property companies.

10 miles in 30! Were you one of the ones with the solid wheels?

I spotted lots of women and men mostly with numbers in the 30's and 50's.

And at one junction the marshalls (two Boy Scouts), actually asked if I was part of the triathlon as I was indicating to go the wrong way.

Lol... not me, I was on my trusty Defy 2, blue shirt, no 73. People were on all sorts of bikes from heavy MTBs to hybrids, even a Brompton.

I was out from about 1050-1120am. Nice roads round there !

Hope you had a good run to Aust.

I didn't set out from Bristol till 11, though my friend ended up getting there much quicker than expected and sat in a pub for an hour waiting for me.

The A403 can be busy with HGV's although I believe there is a cyclepath for part of it ???

Yes and yes. If you come on to the A403 from Northwick (I go that way via Blaise, Hallen, Easter Compton & Pilning), there's a path that goes about half the way to the junction with the M48. The road's fine though - whilst busy, it's wide so plenty of room for HGVs to overtake safely.

Yes, road is wide enough ......... in fact I'm hoping to take part in the Severn RC Evening 10 TT, which uses a section of the A403 from the Aust roundabout down to the Northwick junction.
