No response yet, most races don't send out swim times until appx 1 week before the event. As I entered few weeks ago I am assuming that I am in as most organisers return your entry straight away if the event is full.
yes, let's hope that. We have organised this to be a family event with the boys doing the aquathon too and doing b&b aswell. Not having the cheque cashed does make the planning more difficult. I dont really fancy the 2hr drive on the same day & possibly an early start too.
Oh yes, and so is the run. The 1st km out of transition for both bike & run is the hardest. This is one of the very few times I use my lowest gear on the bike, so whatever you do don't leave it on the big ring.
I've not done Mold, Clitheroe or Denbigh so I can't comment. My lowest gear is 42/23 and that is OK. There are some good descents to look forward to, and the swim is as short as it gets, only 400 yards.

So the bike,
worse than Mold?
worse than Clitheroe?
And surely the run can't be worse than Denbigh. They supply a grab rail there so you can fight for your last gasp of breath
(scoots off to the garage to see if there are any bigger cogs there)
