I think Brian just likes to show off with no shirt on.

Sorry to see this. I was afraid of something like this and was the main reason I passed on this Tri, as much as I would like to support local races I will not do Black Squirrel until the bike is improved.

How did this happen? was it on the narrow bike path?


It was a stupid noob mistake. I went under a road on the bike path and when I came up I had a lot more speed than the guy in front of me. I waited for a break in the oncoming traffic then started to make my move. I was in the aero position and I started to stand up while trying to pass - bike got squirrelly [black squirrelly] and I fell right over. Could it have been avoided if we were on a road? Most likely, but I also know that I fell for a reason.

As Ali said - they are going to look into changing the course since I counted no less than 6 people rashed up after the race. Andy [Adambrady] and I were talking to the president of the triathlon club and he said the only reason he does this race is because it's so close, otherwise he wouldn't do it.
