The Big Bike for Heart and Stroke was a huge success!!

We beat the Barrie Cycling Club by a whopping 27 seconds and set a course record!! Way to Go Baydogs!!!! We practiced our CPR beforehand and thankfully nobody needed to be rescued. The warm up lap around the track loosened us up to prep us for the ride, but the swim caps made us more aerodynamic and helped to bring us victory!!

The Barrie Cycling Club joined us at PIE after for a great social. There had to be thirty of us, easily. Thankfully PIE was great and was able to accommodate the huge unexpected crowd.

Barrie Baydogs Mentoring Program Officially Launched

The inaugural Barrie Baydogs Triathlon Club Mentoring Program officially kicked off on April 6^th at Vidya’s Veggie Gourmet in Thornton.  The Mentoring Program is a free program available to Baydog Members where Mentors and Mentees are carefully matched to create awesome partnerships.  The response to the program exceeded initial expectations, and now 13 Mentors and 13 Mentees are working together during the 2014 season.  Special thanks to Laurie Hunt who facilitated the kick off orientation meeting.  Laurie is not only the Baydog Mentoring Coordinator, but she is also a Mentee.

The program design is to pair up experienced members with new or less-experienced members who are:
- New to the sport of triathlon, or
- Wanting to gain a better understanding of the sport, or
- Looking to train for a new distance or particular race, or
- Simply new to the club and would like someone to introduce them to the people and activities of the club
