Rather new to all this. I am getting confused how to attach my race number securely to my race belt. Plus is it a case of rotating the belt when I change from bike to run?
Many thanks

In most races, you get one number, which you wear facing behind you on the bike, and turn the belt round so that it faces front for the run.
Karl.
Also, I found being not as slim as some of those fit skinny types, that its best to attach the number when the belt is stretched, I did a swim run over christmas and didnt, after about 30s the number ripped in one corner and flapped around for the duration of the run, which was a pain every time you go past a check point to hold the number so the marshall could record me going past!
But I wouldnt worry about it too much, there are a couple of other things that are more pressing.....
I usually put a little bit of Gaffer/duck tape in each corner on the back of my number to stop the number ripping, then pin it to my trisuit or punch a hole through it with scissors to attach it to the number belt.[:)]
