Anyone need info on the course or the area? I am a veteran of the race and a local and happy to provide any info.

This will be only my second tri in over 20 years. Looking forward to getting into the swing of tri's again. Training has been spotty over the last 3 weeks but it is just a sprint and just for training so.......

Bike course tip for those who don't ride here regularly. On the return portion of the bike route, ride in the road. The bike lane has lots of potholes that you can't really see when your riding fast.

Swim tip, if your not in the first wave, watch the earlier waves start and take note of where you should start in relation to the turn buoy. There is typically a left to right drift and you should line up a bit left of the buoy. If you line up on the buoy you will get sucked inside the buoy and have to fight your way backwards to make the turn

Postrace tip - Drink the bushwackers slow, they catch up fast.

Weather update - ESE winds 15mph. That will mean some chop on the swim and the bike wiill be vicious on the ride back. It will be fun going out.
