Comments: Overall the race was good. I think there are some growing pains here. As mentioned by another reviewer maybe revise the start schedule to let the sprint go first. They will be done and off the course so there is less crossover between the Olympic & Sprint. Also, they need a volunteer or even a ranger to not let vehicles entering the day use area come all the way to the bottom of the driveway. This would be normal if a race were not occurring, but this brought a couple vehicles right into the chute for bike in/out. My wife was watching and saw a couple near bike/car collisions as a result. The race is getting big enough that first-come-first-served is no longer adequate for transition. Left to our own devices, we are terrible at bike racking. There was enough rack space for everyone but bikes were too spread out. Even if the racks aren't going to have assigned numbers, then rack spaces should be delineated to allow more people to fit in. There were a couple bikes propped at the ends

Comments: Love to see run trails rerouted to avoid all the oncoming runners all day. Also had odd timing for the sprint triathlon start that didn't make sense. Basically made them start swim on the oly lap 2. (So transition and bike course were jammed) Seems real easy to me, start sprint swim wave ahead of oly and they are long gone from transition...?
