DQ, finished three laps instead of five. Marshall gave incorrect information, very frustrating and disappointing. Bike time estimated based on 3 lap time.

Understand the course better, verify with more than one official.

Definitely the stronger of the two transition areas.

Left gel in transition prior to getting on bike. Would have like to fuel on the bike as opposed to in transition. Didn't sit 100% well on my stomach for the run.
