Pretty good time considering I stopped twice to help fallen riders. Also the road surface was wet so I felt I had to hold back a little to ride safely

Nice Race. I'm glad someone else had a tough time with the swim, like I did. Definetly not like a pool...

I had a blast doing this race as my first tri? Are you going to do anymore of their races later in the summer?
