  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Below average
  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: It's a small race with little sponsorship and the bike course was less than desirable. Oh and no medics to look at road rash which quite a few people had due to the wet bike course. They were only helping if you were broken.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Lots of volunteers - last year at the bike turn around there was me and one other woman. Couldn't believe it this year when there were 6 there! HOV lane is what it is. I think the flats were from people riding too far right, the middle seemed fine. Definitely needed a dismount sign though. Great views of the city and stadiums, and lots of fun.

  • Comments: I had an absolute blast. Nothing beats coming down 279 on the bike, rounding that last bend at 30mph and having the Pittsburgh skyline right in front of you. Very well organized event and I can't say I was complaining about the good lookin' ladies from Suzuki running around 8)
