MOST COMMON CORNWALL TRIATHLON RULES

1. Helmets: Helmets must be worn at all times while on your bike. This means before, during, and after the event.

2. Chin Straps: Chin straps must be buckled before removing your bicycle from the bike rack. Chin straps must remain buckled until after you rack your bike in transition after completing the bike portion of the event.

3. Outside Assistance: No assistance other than that offered by race and medical officials may be used. Triathlons are individual tests of fitness.

4. Transition Area:  All equipment must be placed in the properly designated and individually assigned bike corral. The wheel of the bicycle must be down on the side of the assigned space. All participants must return their bicycles to an upright position in their designated bicycle corral. No person shall interfere with another participant’s equipment or impede the progress of another participant. All bar ends must be solidly plugged. No participant shall bring ANY glass containers into the transition area.

5. Drafting:
Drafting--keep at least three bike lengths of clear space between you and the cyclist in front. If you move into the zone, you must pass within 15 seconds.
Position--keep to the right hand side of the road of travel unless passing another competitor.
Blocking--do not ride on the centre or left side of the lane without passing anyone and interfering with other cyclists attempting to pass.   Do not ride two abreast.
Overtaken--once passed, you must immediately exit the draft zone (3 bike lengths) from the rear, before attempting to pass again.

6. Course:  All competitors are required to follow the prescribed course and to stay within all coned lanes. Cutting the course is an obvious violation and going outside the course is a safety issue. Cyclists shall not cross a solid yellow center line for ANY reason. Cyclists must obey all applicable traffic laws at all times.

7. Unsportsmanlike-Like Conduct:  Foul, harsh, argumentative or abusive language or other unsportsmanlike conduct directed at race officials, volunteers, spectators or fellow athletes is forbidden.

8. Headphones: Headphones, headsets, walkmans, ipods, mp3 players, etc. are not to be carried or worn at any time during the race.

9.Race numbers: All athletes are required to wear race numbers at all times during the run. Numbers may face the back while on the bike course and must face the front during the run course being clearly visible at all times. Numbers may not be cut or folded or altered in any way. DO NOT transfer your number to any other athlete or take a number from an athlete that is not competing.

10. Abandonment: All personal equipment and belongings taken out onto the course must stay on the athlete the entire time. No garbage, clothing, etc. shall be thrown on the course.
