This review was submitted for Challenge Almere 2024 - Middle Distance Aquabike
Year of participation: 2024 I participated in Aquabike
A very well organised event by Richard Belderok – Challenge Family LOC.
He’s listened to aquabikers feedback from their inaugural event in 2023.
Ride through finish line, post-race water & snacks at T2 finish line.
The actual finish line to collect medal and shirt is a 10min walk away but you still get the opportunity to cross that official finish line.
One negative – when you cross the final finish line your time didn’t show up so MC’s didn’t call out your name 🙁
A great race nonetheless, and Challenge are looking at adding Aquabike to their other events – happy days!
