Thank you for hosting the event — the location was fantastic, and we appreciated the opportunity to participate. However, I wanted to share some honest feedback in the hope it will help improve future editions. Unfortunately, we encountered several organizational issues that affected our experience: • Pre-event communication was lacking. Key information such as the exact event location, parking details, route maps, bike suitability (VTT vs road), start times, and registration tents was either missing or hard to find on an overly complex website. • On arrival, signage and support were minimal and confusing (hidden in all the merchandising tents…) We missed the “pre-entrance” tent due to poor signposting and couldn’t locate anyone who could clearly explain the routes or provide maps. The maps had apparently been removed, and the staff member at the desk wasn’t familiar with the course. • The bike route was confusing. The pre-event video suggested three laps, but the PDF map didn’t match. In the end, the children only completed two laps, and a group (including my son) who had already started the third lap were told to turn back — very disorganized. • Transition zone staff were unhelpful and rude when my son simply asked to retrieve his belongings. • Food options were quite unhealthy for a sporting event — mainly burgers, paninis, chips, and sweets. Some healthier, more athlete-appropriate choices would be a welcome improvement. We understand that organizing events like this can be complex, but with better communication and clearer on-site support, the experience could be greatly improved. We hope this feedback is helpful and leads to a smoother, more positive event next time.

Merci d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre retour détaillé, ainsi que pour vos commentaires positifs sur le site de l’événement. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié le cadre et l’opportunité de participer. Nous sommes toutefois sincèrement désolés d’apprendre que plusieurs aspects de votre expérience n’ont pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes. Une communication claire et cohérente avant et pendant l’événement est essentielle pour nous, et nous regrettons que des informations importantes telles que le lieu précis, le stationnement, les parcours, le matériel adapté, les horaires et l’organisation de l’inscription n’aient pas été suffisamment accessibles ou claires. Nous allons revoir la structure de notre communication et de notre site afin de les rendre plus simples et plus lisibles. Nous sommes également désolés pour la confusion rencontrée à votre arrivée ainsi que les difficultés à trouver les différentes zones de l’événement et à obtenir des informations sur les parcours. La signalétique et l’accompagnement sur place sont des éléments essentiels de l’expérience participant, et vos remarques concernant leur visibilité ainsi que la connaissance du parcours par le personnel seront transmises à l’équipe organisatrice. Concernant le parcours vélo, nous comprenons votre inquiétude face aux incohérences entre les différents supports d’information ainsi qu’à la confusion sur le nombre de tours. Ce n’est clairement pas le niveau de clarté que nous souhaitons offrir, et nous allons enquêter sur cette situation afin d’assurer une parfaite cohérence de l’ensemble des documents et communications à l’avenir. Nous sommes également désolés pour votre expérience dans la zone de transition. Nous attendons de l’ensemble de notre personnel et de nos bénévoles qu’ils soient accueillants et serviables, et ce point sera revu directement avec les équipes concernées.

Superbe course avec un cadre magnifique. Belle ambiance. Point d'amélioration pour l'an prochain: ne pas mélanger des vélos de route avec des vtt, ou bien indiquer dans les documents avant la course que le terrain est adapté pour les deux. Pas très équitable quand le parcours est super roulant. Bravo à tous!

Our 4th time at this event and once again the venue did not disappoint, nor the administration and atmosphere.  We were wel briefed before the race and although disapointing the decision to cancel the junior swim was the right one based on the water quality.  My only issue was with the marshalling.  For the 13-15 event some marshalls at bike-out moved the tape marking the course.  As I am familiar with the course I was surprised to see this but assumed that this was a temporary measure to manage spectators.  Therefore I was surprised to then see the competitiors heading through the woods on a route which was now unmarshalled and not correctly signposted.

I hear that the competitors ended up out of the Chateau grounds on the adult run route, fortunately not on the public highway.  To the credit of the organisers they quickly addressed the situation and got marshals on the route to recover the situation.  Hoewever, this does not reflect well on how well the marshalling team were briefed or supervised and needs to be addressed for future events, especially for childrens' races.

Great triathlon venue. Marshalling not good on one of the junctions of run, knowing which way to go. Still awaiting results from race. Most still say 0.00 even 24 hours after the event. Very disappointing I. Terms of timing. Only knew results on presentation prizes for top 3. Not good enough. Go back to stuweb please!!!
