What are your thoughts on bringing a bike trainer to an outdoor tri to warm up?
Pros? Cons? Experiences - good and bad?

Funny you should ask. I was thinking ahead to my first oly tri in May. Knowing it always takes me a little to get warmed up, I thougth about doing the same thing. Can't hurt to spend 15 min warming the legs up before a race. Does anyone know if you are allowed in the water before a race to warm up too?

it depends, many have alloted warm up times, however, smaller sprint races do not.
