Finishing athletes continue approximately 15m past the turnaround and will be directed right to the bike finish which is in the “horse-shoe” section of Horton Street adjacent to the Town Green. Athletes need to dismount before the Bike Finish arch where volunteer catchers will take and rack athlete bikes. Any athlete observed THROWING THEIR BIKE AT A VOLUNTEER CATCHER WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY DISQUALIFIED. Athletes will then follow the directions of volunteers to the Bike-to-Run transition marquee.
