Pros: Friendly volunteers
Cons: Very late posting of results, two separate transition areas
It was a big improvement over last year's event: at least the course was fairly well marked and there were real human beings AND a sign marking the bike turnaround! For some reason T1 and T2 were in two separate locations, about a mile apart, which meant you had nothing to change into, no sunblock, none of your stuff you brought until race officials shuttled your stuff back an hour or so after the finish. Worst of all, no official results published yet, and it's been 10 DAYS! Inexcusable!
