What do you think about Aquabike?

The USAT Age Group Committee is working on the promotion of Aquabike as a sport to be included in more and more events across the country. This is a sport (swimming and cycling) that is growing and in fact has now been established in two regional championships: the Northeast Regional Championship and the Mid-Atlantic Regional Championship. The benefits of including this event include:

• Opening up the multisports world to people who may be daunted by all three events of Triathlon
• Creating more opportunity for market exposure for sponsors (and therefore their participation at more events)
• Making it possible for aging and/or injured athletes to continue in their multisports participation despite injuries or degenerative conditions.
