Subject: RE: Try It On Triathlon No, they do not close the course; however, I remember the course to have sufficient volunteers to keep the ride smooth. Because the race starts so early, I didn't have any problems during the first part of my ride; however, because the ride inevitably goes into the 7:30ish time, people start getting out and about that time of morning. I remember around the 6 mile mark or so, I got a little tense. I am a worry rider (I don't particularly like riding with cars ) -- I do remeber at one point, I was riding along side of cars who were backed up at a traffic light. or from someone taking a left. The issue at that point was (1 ) people trying to pass on the left with a car on that side, and (2 ) trying to stay right for the cars and other bikes when there was little no shoulder. Again, most of the part of the ride is through a residential area and the whole course has great support. |
