    HI - i want to enter in the upcoming Humbert Challenge sprint event. I have just started to get involved in a local club and going to join that.. what else do I need to do regarding TI? The club membership is looking for a TI number.

    Do I need to join TI as a member for 53 or 18 euro (and ODL )Or can i just purchase a one day license alone - will that give me a TI number?

    At the moment, i just want to take part in this one event and have no plans to do other ones. Any guidance appreciated !

    Thanks

    Yes I think the club will want you to take up a TI membership to cover insurance for group rides, swims etc etc.

    To race all you would need is a TI one day licence to cover you for the day

    Some clubs take membership payments through TI, so when you register as a TI member you tick a box to join your club at the same time. TI charge you the extra and pass this on to the club.

    One Day Licences can't generally be purchased on the day. Deadlines to Purchase One Day Licences:

    * For races being held on a Sat, Sun or bank holiday: midnight the Thursday before race
    * For races being held on a weekday: midnight the day before the race

    From the TI Site

    Grand thanks for the info - so will i need to join TI for 18 euro and then buy a one day license as well ? i thought i could join the club first but online it's requesting a TI number and not sure if the day license is enough. thanks for the help

    You need to buy a one day licence to enter just one race (€15), this will expire after a day.

    If you are training with the club, this won't cover their insurance, so you must buy the TI licence (€53), which will also cover all TI races you enter (and will have a TI number). So if want to train with the club, you need the TI licence, the ODL isn't enough to cover this.

    If you are a TI member you won't need any one day licences.

    Your club registration may be set up in such a way that you need to join TI before you can join the club.

    great thanks guys - it looks like i need to have a TI number alright on-line so i might just go ahead and sign up for the rest of the year. I suppose once i had the membership then I could try out a duathlon later in the year and I'll be covered : ) Thanks for the help
