Subject: Quick Question about Gear Bags at Transition Areas
So my husband is competing in the Galena Sprint this weekend. The bike is a point to point course, but he was only given 1 gear bag (as was everyone else)

Being first timers...we're a bit panicked....and clueless...

How does this work?

He'll be swimming in a wet suit and need to change shoes for both the bike and the run...

Are we off our rocker? We should have 2 bags...right? There's no way they'd transfer the bags mid-race...or would they?

Also, nothing was given to label the bags with his race number...and we can't find any information in the participant guide.

We'd love your two cents!!

Thanks

Sounds pretty weird to me too.  I guess the options are to either ride the bike or run barefoot.  Pick your poison!

I'd contact the RD. According to the participants guide , there are supposed to be 2 bags.

Yup. But everyone only got 1. I found a post on the IL board with someone else having the same issue. :/ I guess we'll figure it out tomorrow night at check in!
