Subject: Huge decision to make

Circumstances have resulted in one, and only one, race for me this year - MOO. On top of that, it's my first IM. So you can image the apprehension, worrying, fear, indecisiveness, etc. that comes along with having just one race to make or break your season and it being your first at that particular distance. So as I wrestle with all the details and decisions I have to make, one pops right to the top of the list....what should I wear?

A. Donkey head/carrot tri-top with black tri-shorts or
B. Blue Tri-Donkai top with matching tri-shorts or
C. Donkey for bike, Blue for run (or visa versa)


All opinions welcome...

Suppose this coulda been a poll, but I've invested enough time in typing this as it is....

The donkey head top is a fan favorite, proven at MOO 07 and Boston.  The Tri Donkai kit is nice, but its not as noticeable to the cheering fans who will call you donkey dude, donkey man, donkey boy, etc, etc.  It is motivation for me when i don it.

To summarize, the donkey head is a game changer.

Well, if you're looking for a matching color scheme to match your eyes, bike, shoes .... 

If anything, you'll get quite the crowd support with A.

Whatever feels more comfortable for YOU, though.

You know what would be a real crowd pleaser? Pulling an actual Donkey around with you on the run course. If that isn't going to happen, then I say go with the donkey head top.

Donkey head...definitely.  It's way easier for us spectators to recognize you from further away, which then means we can make the cheers all the louder because we've had more time to rally the troops.

I'm partial to the Tri Donkai kit.  But, the feedback from the ladies above make it sound like the donkey head is a panty dropper.

What?

Reason #1:  selfish reasons,  all us strappers will be able to see that big AZZ coming from a distance (not that you have a big AZZ, just the one that is on the front of the shirt).

Reason #2: you get many shoutouts from people you don't know but love the jersey,  I got so many shout outs last year at AZ just cuz of the jersey, it was a big uplift during the race that many others don't get.
