Subject: RE: Nautica Malibu Triathlon - Herbalife International Distance : Official ThreadSaw a multiple bike pile up at the second last speed bump in the parking lot , ambulances and firetrucks then quickly converged , Anyone know what happened to those riders ? Time was approx 8:30 (as i was just heading out of T1. going east )
Great weather , water was ideal : 65F calm , clear , small waves.
I am glad they had that pontoon bridge under PCH because when i last tried riding through there
i slipped and crashed in the water , harming my pride more than anything else.
A slight tailwind on the trip to Leo Carillo helped get me set a good pace early .
Spent more time in drops coming back , trying as much to cut the slight head wind as to drop a persistent rider sucking my rear wheel. He never passed me. Is it ok to be a bit mad at pulling a drafter along ?
Anyway very enjoyable day and race .
