Hello All,

Congrats to Scott Duprex for taking the overall win at the Causeway Biathlon this past weekend. With the season coming very close to an end for everyone, if you have any results, please email Andrew or so everyone gets to learn of the awesomeness of GC Tri!

This weekend Andrew C and Raphael will be leading a group ride on Saturday leaving the 14th St Ferry at 8:00 AM.

GC Tri has yet another awesome discount to offer official club members (we do have a list). Surya Yoga in Hoboken has offered us 10% of a 10 pack of sessions at their studio. Rather than $200, it is only $180 and it is good for one year after activation. Take advantage of this great deal and do something different than just swimming, biking or running!
