  • Comments: All the volunteers were fantastic. Packet pick up, registration, body marking, etc were all timely. Lots of portapotties and not a lot of queueing time for them. Fantastic transition area restricted to "athletes only"! Well organized, fantastic race. Only downer was one corner where there were lots of cyclists not in the race heading in a different direction, with a volunteer shouting, "pursuit racing, north". I was a bit confused because I didn't know this was a pursuit racing event. "Wallis Sands Tri" would have been better. I rode the next bit a bit slower, and the further I went without seeing anyone with a race number, the slower I got, thinking I'd have to turn around. Finally, someone came by with a number, mumbling to himself about how confused he was by the last volunteer at the corner. Otherwise, fantastic race.

  • Comments: I really like this race. Super pretty, although late September weather can usually be pretty sketchy. Nice along the ocean. Will do again next year (plus it's only 10 miles from the house)

  • Comments: Another great Wallis Sands race to close out the season. This is my third podium finish (three in a row), and my first podium on a sprint. Good way to close out the season.
