Are you asking for advice on this logo, or are you asking us if we want to go to the NY TRI EXPO 2016?

As a logo, there is way too much going on.

The sports icons are pretty rough honestly.
- The swimmer's body is straight above the water.
- The runner has a pointy odd neck and looks like they are from the tripping hazard sign.
- Since they are on blue and under the city, they all look like they are in water. The biker and the runner are drowning.

It is hard to see the ribbon shadows, as everything is so dark, and ribbon shadows are not modern in the slightest. It makes the logo look really dated.

Do you need to use the entire NY skyline to symbolize NY? There is an awful lot of it here. Unless the race goes from the Statue of Liberty to ... that little building over there by that pointy bit that is certainly a famous building... I think there is too much.

The kerning needs to be tightened in 2016, and I am not a fan of the font used. Sorry, globally this is a complete miss for me...

Oh, the colours are nice though.

i have to agree with Mr waffles, you should rework on your sport symbols.
The font in the center feels too bold.
Next : the colors... i'm not sure i like the yellow/blue/black combination.
(With the blue it looks like all the little people are IN the water)

Overall it needs to be reworked i'd say but don't lose hope!
