Thanks to Ben and Steve for going on my hour long ride this morning. I would never have kept it at only an hour if I had not told them in advance that was all we were going to do. I have the bike all prepped with the race hydration set-up and the race wheels are installed. It is just really, really hard to not just start hammering when you here the sound of a disc wheel.
Here is the bike as it is ready to race a Half Iron distance. The only addition will be two gels taped to the top tube. I will toss the between the aero bars bottle at the first aide station and use at least one (two if the weather warrants) bottle of Gatorade off the course.
