Pack Pickup, Bike Racking and Presentations:

Busselton 100 and Aquabike athletes must collect their race packs and rack their bikes the day before the race. Please ensure you arrange accomodation for Saturday night. The Presentations function will be held on Sunday evening, post-race, at a separate venue, so we recommend staying in town until Monday.

Busselton Foreshore Triathlon (Sprint & Enticer) and Kids Triathlon athletes can collect their packs either the day before, or on race morning. Bikes for these events cannot be racked until race morning. Presentations for the Foreshore Triathlon will be held at the event site post-race.
