On August 25, 2019 para athletes and Bicycle Newfoundland and Labrador volunteers teamed up to enter three para teams in the 2019 Paradise Triathlon. They won first, second and third place in the new para team category. The athletes would like to thank the triathlon committee and volunteers for being so welcoming and making the triathlon such an enjoyable event, as well as the Bicycle NL volunteers who make it all possible. Congratulations everyone!
