Bike Check-IN
When checking in, the bike and helmet are checked for compliance with the rules (front and rear wheel brakes, handlebars, triathlon attachments and wheels if applicable). This is purely a visual inspection and not a test of functionality.
The athlete must therefore have the bike checked by a specialist beforehand.
The bike helmet must be put on when checking in and the strap must be fastened; only then is check-in possible.
When checking in, the presence of the start number on the bike and the control band on the arm will also be checked.
Please also refrain from bringing large boxes and bags.
Competition Rules
You can find the competition rules on the official ÖTRV homepage.
BikeCheckOUT
The bike check out begins as soon as the last athlete has left the bike and onto the running track.
This will be announced by the announcer.
For the bike check out you absolutely need your start number
You cannot check out your bike without your start number. We ask you to throw your rubbish in the rubbish bin provided when you leave.
As soon as check out has started please collect your bike as soon as possible.

Wearing a neoprene suit while swimming is allowed as long as the neoprene thickness is no more than 5mm!
