Anyone else going?

So far it's just me going, I plan on renting a car and taking the Tsawwassen ferry over on Saturday. I live in downtown Vancouver.

Haven't decided about accommodation yet. If anyone is going and wants to car pool, then let me know. I'm fine with renting a car or using your car. I have a trunk mounted bike rack that fits 3 bikes if needed.

Is that the Sri Chinmoy tri or Self Transcendence tri (what ever they call it)?

Not going but have done this one a few times in the past. Great race! Love the run around Elk Lake.

Good luck, have fun!

The only time I ran around elk lake (Victoria HIM), I tripped and fell and finished the race bloody, so I dislike that run. Damn I'm clumsy.

Have fun this weekend everyone!

I'll be there! But as a spectator.
I had to defer my entry to next year. ;-(

It's a great race - did it last year, had a blast. The bike was challenging, the run is so pretty, and it's a fabulous crowd.
I was training at the lake last night, and there were a TON of people out on the trails and getting in their "last minute" swims ...

Oops, I haven't done any cycling in 3 months.

I guess I'll be sleeping in my car. I imagine I'll try to park close to the beach. Will anyone kick me out?

It's just all rolling hills, nothing huge ... beautiful scenery though.
As for sleeping in your car - they lock the park at night, and I know there's security. Might be a challenge. I don't have any guest accomodations (turned my spare room into an office) so I can't offer a place to stay. Sorry.
