BIKE COLLECTION CARD

RACE DAY INFORMATION

The Bike Collection Card is located within your race pack. This card can be used for a loved one to collect your Bike and Gear Bags from Transition during Bike/Bag collection times. Please ensure you sign the card prior.

Special Needs Bags must be dropped off in the designated area on the morning of the race, upon exit of Transition on the way to swim start. Athletes should only include perishable items inside Special Needs bags as this station is for nutritional purposes. Your race kit includes your special needs bag sticker which must be visible on the front of your special needs bag. Bags without a proper sticker will not be accepted. IRONMAN® is not responsible for the contents. Although we try to expedite assisting you in obtaining your Special Needs bag at the station, the volume of athletes may require that you stop and find your bag.

SPECIAL NEEDS BAGS *NEW IN 2019

Athletes will no longer receive plastic Special Needs bags within their race bags. This is to align with IRONMAN Oceania’s direction and with the support from IRONMAN Western Australia Local Organising Committee to move in the direction of a sustainable event.

Athletes will have two options if they wish to use Special Needs both on the Bike and Run course.
