Comments:

the snaking back and forth from lane to lane was a little tricky and pretty much ruled out the flip turns to avoid head on collisions....

Comments:

it was pretty darn cold so my T1 time probably suffered a little trying to put my socks and riding shoes on.....

Comments:

wish i would have known about the speed bump right after you jump on the bike and start throttling out of the T1 area. other than the speed bump it was a nice ride on mostly decent roads....
Transition 2
  • 02m 29s
Comments:

this transition was much easier as it had warmed up a little and i wasnt soaking wet. i did pause for about 10 seconds to take a nice drink before running out of the T2......
