As infoundnout last year you can't take Co2 cannister either in hand or hold luggage with them.
Can anyone take two screw top cannisters out with them if they are flying EasyJet etc?
I remember reading people saying that Lanza was too early in the year. I'm beginning to see why now!
is anyone else flying out on the Wednesday lunch time flight from Gatwick? I'm sorting out a minibus/taxi thing to take me and bike box to the Oceana village but if anyone's close by shout and I'll add them
Hope it dries out otherwise you may need a eerie for the run
Is it time to start training yet..??
plan is survive the swim, some how, then go easy around the island on the bike, and then run/walk / walk the run.
I rode the island a couple of months back, and did a one other 180k ride a couple of weeks ago, so i'll get around the bike course but it wont be fast.
swimming - err 6 swims this year
running - i did a 10 k run a couple f months ago so will get to 15-20k before the wheels fall of.
oh dear
10 kg heavier than when I was fast(ish).
I'm not taking the tri bike as it will be embarising being passed by so many others while looking like I should be going faster.
Who's the social secretary this year?
The Judge said I wasn't allowed her phone number again, something to do with it being against the conditions of the restraining order .... ??
Forecasts often understate the windspeed accross the higher parts of the island
Help me out pirates!
I need... bike, race kit, beer money and a couple of t-shirts? anything else? I'm hoping I can fit all my stuff into a combination of bike box and hand luggage - is this possible?
I arrive in Lanza - is it easy enough to get a cab which will take a bike box or should I book something? I head over to Princesa Ico (which is opposite Club Oceano or so I'm lead to believe!) put bike together and check it works and nothing is broken. Then head over to registration with some the Pirates (If you'll still have me?!)
Friday, chill and rack.
Saturday - race
Sunday - drink beer
Monday - fly home
Is that it?! Sounds simple
Any specific tips on things to take that I might not have thought about only having raced in the cold UK?! Or tips for set up on the bike, I was planning on riding the TT with 52/36 11/28 set up. Seem ok?
And finally... do we have a list? I know there was one a few pages back but not sure who is actually racing / supporting... I'm (obviously racing no. 1014)
