 If You Enjoyed The Celebration Triathlon, You'll LOVE The Tricolumbia ChesapeakeMan Endurance Festival
The TriColumbia ChesapeakeMan Endurance Festival, utilizing portions of the world renown TriColumbia EagleMan course, on September 24th has a distance for you. There are four to choose from including the ChesapeakeMan Ultra, AquaVelo, Skipjack 75.2, or TriColumbia's brand new Bugeye Sprint. There's something for every ability level!
Triathlon Magazine's March 2010 issue named the ChesapeakeMan Ultra Distance event a "140.6 Best Race," and The Ultra Distance event is the USAT Mid Atlantic Championship Ultra Distance race. 
Offering the same high level of logistic expertise and volunteer support that all TriColumbia events are known for, the festival takes place on September 24th, when the summer temperatures are easing. Enjoy fall in Dorchester County and the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge.

TriColumbia Protects The Environment
As many of you know, we have banned the use of plastic bags of any kind on bikes stored overnight in the transition areas. The bags fall off, blow off, or are simply left behind. If you attempt to use plastic bags, staff will remove them.
TriColumbia and Endurafit are pleased to announce a brand new product, The Rack Jacket, an alternative to using trash bags to cover your bike. We fully embrace the "leave no trace behind" concept, and strive to eliminate litter produced at our events. You may also use an old swim cap to over your bike seat if you like.
The Rack Jacket is the essential item for those of you who wish to protect your bike from the elements.
Key Benefits of the Rack Jacket are:
- Designed specifically for triathlon bike racks
- Made of highly water resistant ripstop nylon
- Environmentally friendly
- Reusable
- Cord locks and Velcro straps keep it securely fastened in windy conditions
- Reasonably priced
- Available in a variety of colors
- Team orders are welcome
