First Event of the year...2nd May at Torbay

13th December

A message from the chair (not a real chair just a figure of speech!)

"And as we say goodbye to 2008 in the dark days of December its time to play spot the red-eye in the pictures taken at this years Tristars awards.

The current members show off their new cycle tops and resident comedian Nick strikes a pose with Maggie "gold medal" Bromley as he collects his goody bag.

Well done to everyone who raced, trained, coached and helped with the Tristars during 2008. Onwards into 2009. Tri-stars

It is still, as it has been since 2001 an absolute pleasure to be part of the club that set the standard for all to follow in the southwest.
