Event comments:

Beautiful location, very nice transition area grounds, transition area was not organized and security was at a minimum, really needs improvement, parking was a disaster if you did not arrive really early, bike riders were not disembarking at get off point and there was no enforcement, race organization went down hill if you were one of the last to finish, can be a great race, but needs a little more dialing in
