I really need to try out my wetsuit at least once before my race in San Diego next weekend. Does anyone want to join me for a swim at Canyon early tomorrow morning???? I have never swam open water there but Tanya was telling me of a good spot.

Anyone up for it???

I have never swam there on a Sat morning (when there will be lots of boaters out and about), but a good place to swim is right after the first bridge.  You park off to the left, and walk down to the waters edge just north of the bridge.  Then you swim under the bridge back into the cove because the boats have to be no wake in there.  Just make SURE you wear a brightly colored cap, AND I really hope someone wants to go with you, because you should not be out there alone!!!  But yet......it will be cooler water.

I think AZ Tri swims thereon Saturdays, if its early enough the boaters won't be out yet (too early to start drinking and boating).

Well I hope someone else is swimming there tomorrow morning. I am still trying to talk my wife or maybe my dad into tagging along.

Sorry I missed your message. I wasn't able to get online last night. We were at my parents house and the computer is in the room my son's crib is in.  So I ended up going out there alone. It was good. I really enjoyed swimming in the wetsuit. The spot at Canyon is great for swimming. The water is cleaner and quite a bit cooler. Thanks Tanya, for informing me of the location.
