A few people have mentioned this as a problem in the past too. Date clashes are rare for triathlon events, and they mostly clash with running events held the same weekend. If there were particular events you would rather not have clash in the 2009 calendar, then let me know and see if we can do something about it. </p> http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/topic.php?id=246#post-714 Sun, 09 Nov 2008 22:35:03 +0000 admin 714@http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/ <p>A new poll has been added to the Home Page for your feedback, listing some of the possible features under discussion for inclusion in a 2009 version of tricornwall. These features may be added to/revised in the final version, but promise to include some excellent new functions. Also expected is a more extensive events guide, and many more features for users to interact with other users. So VOTE NOW to add your views. </p> http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/topic.php?id=246#post-713 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 22:01:35 +0000 Max 713@http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/ <p>One of the ideas being considered is a feature rich forum, together with some other cool features! </p> http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/topic.php?id=246#post-712 Sat, 25 Oct 2008 17:32:12 +0000 Harry 712@http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/ <p>Could smilies and stuff be added to the forum? </p> http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/topic.php?id=247#post-711 Fri, 24 Oct 2008 18:46:47 +0000 admin 711@http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/ <p>News is:</p> <p>It is now closed to entries and has 90 children entered.

Feedback can be positive though not enough post and say why they liked an event, or why they took part, and how they benefitted or felt good about their achievment of actually finishing. Its an amazing feat of fitness to actually finish an event, and is often underrated. tri-cornwall offers a voice to those who take part and sometimes do criticise, but it also allows your response too. </p> <p>One of my favourite events is due soon, Wadebridge. Last time I did it, it had some really dodgy racking with wheel slots which on a windy day looked like it could bend some expensive wheels. Great cycle though and the run is great too. </p> http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/topic.php?id=240#post-696 Sun, 05 Oct 2008 16:22:05 +0000 Beaker 696@http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/ <p>Yes, I agree with Grammarsow, but I still feel that it is best to email or call the organizer personally with constructive criticism or to discuss an issue or concern as some comments can be taken out of context on forums etc. </p> http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/topic.php?id=239#post-695 Fri, 03 Oct 2008 06:47:54 +0000 admin 695@http://www.tri-cornwall.org.uk/forums/ <p>This event is on tomorrow.

Bad luck to no.17 who had a puncture which sounded like a car back firing. In a very high position in the race (top 10) got off and fitted a new inner tube as others over took.
