Thanks for updates. I am leaving to drive down now and take in a short swim and check bike in. back to Hotel fro R & R after that. Good luck everyone and dont forget to hdrate on the bike. That wind will have a lot of folks preoccupied and will dicipate heat pretty quickly as well But you will sweat and fluids/nutrition are key for this long(er) race and conditions. It has been a while since I saw white caps on an inshore lake. Tomorrow might be right.

man, you arent kidding, that wind was crazy.  I got blown all over today.  The turn from the long downwind to the first crosswind, i got blown off the road during the turn and wound up almost 5 feet into the grass.  Wowo....

wind was nuts.

good race.  HIM bike was about 54.5 that is what my computer showed.  i think the last 30 min i just wanted to be off the bike.  legs cramped really bad @ mile 8-9.  which sucked would have been a sub 5:30 race oh well next year.

nice race, well done.  swim was excellent.
