  • Plenty of drink stations?No

  • Post race activities? Average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: There were a lot of more hard-core athletes, but there were plenty of newbies like me. The course was decent and it was a great day for a race, but there were a couple issues with directions. There were other races going on that day whose courses intersected this one, and a few people got mis-directed by volunteers. At one intersection the cop directing traffic was obviously frustrated with the steady stream of bikes and opened the floodgates right as I was approaching the intersection. No harm done, but I got to verify my brakes! Overall, it was a great second race for me.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too easy

  • Comments: The race director has never sent in race results for this event so beware if you plan on using the results toward a USAT ranking. I received an email response, but still no results. This was a first year event. Better than average swag. Only bagels, bananas, and water after the race. Very quick to show results at the race and posted them the same afternoon which is really cool. Some hiccups with volunteers not knowing what was going on and race director and race officials not being on the same page. Got to expect some of that for a first time event. Overall a promising future for this event.

  • Comments: 1st Annual event, learning curve to be expected. Swim line-up completely unorganized. Insufficient volunteers guiding the course, police letting cars through to close to bikers. Average post race activities.
