Are you great at taking your clothes off? Then you could be a hot contender in the Edinburgh Bicycle Triathlon, where quick changes could give you a definite competitive advantage.

Swim 400 metres, cycle 11 miles and run 3 ½ miles to receive a free goody bag and the chance to win £500 for completing this stimulating personal challenge. For Hogmanay celebrations at a more leisurely pace, see our Hogmanay 2009 Guide.

New entrants are welcome. Around 1/3 of participants have never completed a triathlon before. Some ‘athletes’ ease themselves in gently, by entering a team: you could just grab two friends who can take the baton from you when you’ve done your part.
