Race rules note that current Triathlon NZ competition rules apply. Drafting on the bike leg is allowed; participants should avoid aero bars in drafting situations and not draft if unfamiliar with the skill. The course is not closed to traffic so riders must keep left and ride single file unless passing. Entrants under 18 compete at their parent or guardian’s discretion. Attendance at the compulsory race briefing is required. Several online and pay-at-event payment options are offered; race day entries attract an extra penalty and no discounts.
