On 5 September, Mikel Elgezabal will be on the starting line for the debut of TriStar Monaco 111. "It seems that Monaco is a perfect setting for any sporting event!  It has great views from every leg of the race and a special charm that entices you leaving you wanting more."

Mikel isn’t only looking forward to the atmosphere Monaco offers but the new format TriStar is offering. "Personally, I like the idea of this race especially the hard bike circuit. This new distance is interesting because it is different from the others; as an athlete it is good to be offered different formats, it spices up the race and adds to the competition.’’

Mikel is only 1 of the 'Hot Competitors' racing in TriStar Monaco, come and spend a great day competing with our ‘Hot Competitors’ or cheering for them from the sidelines.

Yes, you can!
