Comments: It was great that Yhoshi and the boys came. I got to see them almost every lap bike and run. Mike was at the bike at off track exit so I had a great cheering section. Yoshi was put off by the lead guys as they didn't care or aknowledge any cheering for them at all. They left before most athletes finished. When it get to be that intense to get a plaque or ribbon give it up and go back to work. Remember the fans and the volunteers. You can't be that wrapped up in the race to not enjoy it. If anything derails this sport it will be the lack of caring by the elite athletes for the fans and novice Tri'er. Don't get me wrong lots of the elite athletes care, but after volunteering it wasn't until 10-15 riders went by, the leaders, until one thanked us or aknowledge our cheering.
