Calling all swimmers, cyclists, runners!

Back Roads and Beaches is currently forming triathlon teams to promote the route again this year. This is a great chance to participate with and meet other athletes, compete in your sport and get a free t-shirt!

We are currently working to assemble teams of like-abilities so no need to worry about being incompatible with teammates. We've had teams that are in it to win as well as those that are just there to have fun and compete. There is no cost to team members, we just ask that you wear the logo (we will provide tshirts/ temporary tattoos) show up and have fun! Below is a list of triathlons at which BRaB is working to compile teams. Please email visitors@visitloraincounty.com or call 440-984-5282 for more information.
