Event overview

The race is based around Bristol Harbour, starting with a swim in the Cumberland Basin, followed by a traffic-free ride on Portway under the famous Clifton suspension bridge and to round it off, an epic run alongside the River Avon.

Whether you are a novice cyclist enjoying the traffic-free route, or a serious athlete looking to post a PB, this 'closed road' event will be one you will remember. 

This is a mass-start, non-drafting event with start waves through the morning from 7am, with two distances to choose from.

If you don't want to tackle all three disciplines yourself, there is also an Aquabike (Swim-Bike) on offer for both distances and a relay over the Standard distance.

This event is for athletes of all abilities.
