Here's the post from Fred Sommer.  Sounds like it was out of his control.  Doesn't help you much but I don't think he's very happy about it either.  Good luck!

We just returned from a meeting with our local Sheriff's department and have been informed that they will not approve our new proposed bike course. The meeting reminded me of a Capital One commercial, i.e. no, NO, nope, can't do it, no, NO, nope, no way, no, etc.

With that in mind, it looks like the 2004 bike course is back on for 2005. It may be changed slightly in town to eliminate runners crossing the cyclists at the start of the run.

Fred

It could be worse ... they could change the swim leg from a flat course to to an uphill swim!
