Alright, lets kick this off!  Who is in?


Also, for the LA locals who would be up for a training ride or two on the course in Sept or Oct?

I am looking at this as a good end of season race for me. Is this the first time they hold this race? I like the idea of a cool race and a wetsuit legal swim. I would be interested to know if someone is familiar with the area. I would be coming from Houston.

Yep, this is the first time for this race although this area hosts several tri's (sprints and an Oly).  Not much help on places to stay in New Roads as I typically just drive there for races.  You may want to try the Louisiana Forum and post there.

I will be doing this race. I usually do most of the races at False River if they dont conflict with my daughter's soccer games. It will be nice to have a HIM this close to home.

Roxy,

Goodluck!  I am doing Big Cajun which will be a good warm-up (actually Big Cajun is my A race and RR is B race).  If anyone is interested I am trying to figure out a Friday to ride the course.  Mainly I want to ride the bridge and I need a little more hill work as Alligator Bayou is short on hills.
