ATC Vehicle – Slanghoek Results
 

NEWS:

ATC Vehicle:
By now you have probably seen the elaborately branded new Ford Ranger hard at work wherever ATC is present!  This awesome vehicle was acquired with the generous contributions from Kelfords Ford in Somerset West and ATC’s coaching partner Embark.  ATC would like to extend our gratitude to Tristan Kelly from Kelfords and STeve Attwell from Embark who put in huge amounts of effort to roll this brilliant piece of machinery off the show room floor.  The vehicle is not owned by ATC and our contribution towards the vehicle will be generated from profits of the on-line store, Tri SPaza, through the sale of club gear and membership administration.
 
We would also like to thank Colin Van Zyl from RNB Insurance for getting us an unbelievable deal for the insurance of this vehicle, our trailer as well as the new Tri SPaza “shop” in the Container.
Milk is Good, the digital design agency who developed our web site, was tasked with designing the vehicle branding with the brief that the vehicle must be, unmistakably ATC, whilst also giving exposure to our sponsors.
 
We look forward to many years of being driven by Kelfords Ford to events for which we are fully prepared for by Embark!
 
Member Personal News:
Congratulations to JD and Kiki Neill on the birth of their baby girl Keeva.  Mom and Keeva were seen supporting JD to his AG group win at Slanghoek on the weekend.
 

RESULTS:

Combine the hospitality of the Breeland Estate, the beauty of the Slanghoek Valley and the race organising capabilities of Iqela Events and what do you get?  A fantastic weekend of racing in what must be one of the best settings for a Triathlon in the World!  And the dam looked even more beautiful with the orange ATC buoys floating on it.  Certainly not an easy event with the wind and heat adding to the tough routes plotted by Pieter Du Plessis.  But the athletes did their part and raced hard to make for an exciting weekend. 
 
Congratulations to the following members for placing in their respective Age Groups (AG).  All the ATC’ers results are at the bottom of this email.

SA Ocean Festival
The South African Ocean Festival is currently on in the V&A Waterfront and runs till the 8th of November.  This week there is an Open Water Swim Knockout Relay (4 x 100m) on Thursday evening and a Team Relay or Individual Mile swim on Sunday morning.  For more information, please visit:  www.oceanfestival.co.za
 
The Landmarks Half, a scenic and challenging half through the Southern Suburbs is highly recommended!  Whilst all pre-entries have closed, you can still enter the 21 Km or 6 Km on the day (Sunday, 1 Nov) from 05h00.  The 21 Km starts at 06:00 so you can run this and be back in time for the Ocean Festival Mile.  You are requested to bring a soft toy, puzzles, colouring books and crayons, and blow bubbles for the children at the Red Cross Children’s Hospital.
 
Other runs on Saturday include the Elsies River 10 K, the Bains Trail Run in Wellington, the Halloween Forest Night Run on the Muratie Estate, the Baytown Run / Walk in Pringle Bay and the Jackal Trail Run in Herbertsdale.

Enjoy the Week!
