Looks like we can be Team BT (or some form of that).

Mind? Heck no!! (as long as you don't somehow try to make money from it obviously).

Let me know if we can help out with image files or anything else.

Hi Marmadaddy,

Over on the Maryland forums we have been discussing competing in a triathlon series as a team.
Are there any issues with BT if we used the name "BT-Maryland" for our team. We don't want to cause any liability or copyright issues.

Thanks for your help,

Steve

Can I be an honorary member?

Sweet!!!  I guess it's free advertising for him

Too bad the "crab" is already taken...

BT-Maryland would be fine.  We need to register for this race by next week for the early bird price so we should come up with a name by then. 

Do you all think the VA folks would want to get in on our team or should we just do MD?  We could have MD vs VA at the local races - a little friendly competition in the blogs

DiamondMan is the half iron put on by Piranha sports on Sept 13th if anyone is interested in that one.  There's not a lot of competition so there's def placing potential (think BT team points!!!!)

Team BT
MDBT.com (we should buy this domain - it's only going for $2,669 right now!)
BT-Maryland

I might have to sit this one out guys.  Funds right now aren't working in my favor.  Trying to save up for new bike, Ragnar relay stinks, and obviously bills are more than I can afford right now.  Especially if I have to find a place to stay prior to the race (ie hotel/motel)

 

Maybe I'll follow someone and spectate.

We had thought about it, but also gonna have to pass on the race.  I'm off for the summer from racing since my spring has been packed and Sept./Oct. are going to be a beast on my schedule.  So I actually have to focus on training!!

If we get set up as a team it can carry over to all the Piranha races not just this one in July. We're a little late into the season but I'm pretty sure that most of us will be doing some more of their races this year.

Next year we'll be a little more organized and possibly make a showing in the season long team standings.

Ehh screw it.. I'll do the race.  I figure I'll make the registration fee back in a day of work or so.  Also would enjoy it with some friends and could always enjoy a race thats on a Saturday which means a nice day to enjoy the beach.

We'd love to have you join on our team!  If you're on BT, you in

We need to decide on a name ASAP so everyone signs up with the right name.  Any other ideas or opinions?

We are now listed as "BT-Maryland" on the Pirahna Sports site. when you set up your profile you can select that from the club list (if you're not already affiliated with a club).
I registered this morning and it worked just fine.

Let's see what kind of turnout we can get.

I registered for Bricks today with team "BT-Maryland".  That brings our grand total of racers on our team to 2.  Hopefully everyone else can sign up over the weekend before the price goes up ... unless you are made of money Money mouth Money mouth in which case you can take your sweet ol' time Wink

That's more of a team than one. 
I thought CJ and Traci were signing up also.

Dover is close by so maybe we can find a good room rate there.

So am I insane for thinking about doing this swim sans wetsuit? It's only 400m and the swim is in a lake, so the potential for very warm water this time of year would seem pretty high...

With such a short race I'm thinking I can save myself a minute or two by just ditching the wetsuit. What do you guys think?

I don't know how much time it will save but there were plenty at Cascade lake without wetsuits. That swim was about the same distances and 6 weeks earlier.

Yeah, I'm still wrestling with the fact that the wetsuit is my OWS security blanket/source of extra speed. It's not much, but that little bit of flotation is nice. This would be a good race to try to get over that, though.
