  • Comments: I like the venue, but the weather dealt us a bum hand. I really wanted the swim to happen, but with the lightning still going on, I think the right decision was made. I do think if the race continues to put the sprint and the International on the same course, they need to work on the turn arounds and such for the two. There were a couple of close calls that should not have happened. The top guys being taken the wrong way by the motorcycle was not cool, and how it was subsequently handled was not cool either.

  • Comments: I was disappointed with the swim being canceled but there was lightning still coming down over the water and the right call. There were a few mistakes by the race organizers throughout the day but there was a lot going on with the damage from the storm the night before, the storm going on right before and such. With that, taking the 10 lead riders off course was not cool and how it was handled after was not the best. Also the penalties given to International riders who got stuck when coming down the bridge and having to mix with sprint rides who just made their U-turn. Having the two distances at the same time was not the best call.
