Pre-race routine:

Waiting on line at the toilet... Pretty uneventful and time consuming, I was not able to spend the time needed in transition area. Set up Tran area, nothing different then in past, bike was obviously different.
Event warmup:

Swim 5 minutes light swimming

To much time was wasted getting lost on the swim course, there were to many markers and i did not do a good enough job to keep line and stay on course.
What would you do differently?:

Stay on course
Transition 1

Comments:

To slow out of tran area, to many people in small area trying to leave tran area. Some one fell, big mess, trying to funnel to many ppl in small area. Run from swim was to long back to bike.
What would you do differently?:

Keep shoes in bike
