Comments: This was the first year the organizers had an aquabike division, and they did a FABULOUS job with it. So many times you hear about how aquabike is the redheaded stepchild, but they didn't make us feel second class at all. When we re-entered transition after the bike they took our chip, and then directed us to the finish line where the announcer said my name just like the athletes doing the full tri. They also had prizes for first, second, and third overall female and male.
Bottom line, they did an outstanding job and despite the mosquitoes and my mental struggles at the beginning of the swim, I will definitely be back next year.
