Seeker911 Posted May 12, 2011 Share I can't see it either but there is no way it will be the much as that is more than the subsidised entry to the ironman. It will be awesome to have a few more races to do. I dont see the pricing either ? I did however put my name down for pre-registration. I'm kinda hoping its not going to be more than R500 per race.

davem Posted May 12, 2011 Share First race is in Bela Bela on 13th August 2011. No further details on www.5150.co.za That water is going to be cold in August! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disylizzy Posted May 12, 2011 Share First race is in Bela Bela on 13th August 2011. No further details on www.5150.co.za That water is going to be cold in August! That's probably why it's being held at Warmbaths... I wonder what the course would be like? Would definitely like to try it out cause I haven't had any official races since August last year!

Thug Posted May 12, 2011 Share The R2 799 entry fee is for the Cape Town challenge which is a full Ironman distance. Entry fees for this series will probably be more in line with with what we paid for 11Global. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cycle Fan Posted May 12, 2011 Share It's going to be a top quality race to the same standards as Ironman. Also part of a Global series (like Ironman is). The guys at Triangle always put on a fantastic event!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Triangle does put a good event together but at this price think i will be watching from the side. And if thats an early entry price wonder how much a late entry is going to set you back?

So if you want to do more that one, say JHB, bela bela and DBN, its going to cost you like 4-5k including travelling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thug Posted May 12, 2011 Share That is a tad steep. Werner Smit has resigned from Troisport and is now the Race Director for 5150. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flex Posted May 14, 2011 Share I agree that seems very expensive. The Future Life Olympic distance triathlon at the Vaal cost half of that and was supremely well organized. The 5150 website remains useless and vague. But mind you, the Ironman SA website is not much better IMHO. Does anyone know when entries for 70.3 in Jan 2012 open? The triangle website says that they are open, but when I click on register, it tells me that entries for the 2011 event are closed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
