What is a Mad Moto?

A mad moto is a set of super short draft-legal triathlons that are completed in heats over a short period of time.  The event aims to provide athletes the chance to develop speed, skills and race tactics while having fun at the same time.

Athletes will compete in heats of nine or less in a short distance triathlon of 200m/2km/ 600m. These heats are repeated until the two-hour timeframe is complete.  Within the course of two hours, athletes can expect to complete about three of the short, draft-legal, triathlon.
