Triple Mix

Triple Mix is on the menu for this round of Grand Prix racing. Athletes versatility will be tested as the they all go through the Round 1 with a SBR and then reverse it for Round 2. Results from 1 and 2 will see athletes line up in Round 3 in a pursuit start commencing with the Bike. How much time will you give yourself?

Mistakes in this format are costly as every second counts in Round 1 and 2 as they define Round 3’s pursuit start. At the end of each Round, athletes only have a few minutes to reset themselves and their equipment.

Athletes will be pushing the limits all the way to the end of each round to ensure they make the cut off time before the next Round starts.
