Minimal shifting and light wind didn't hurt. I must admit I got a kick out of passing modern carbon aero bar equipped multi thousand$ rigs. Must be the Bolshevik in me. What continues to amaze me is how a name like Dave Scott and Centurion are so quickly forgotten in the new world of modern high tech triathlon equipment. It's a shame.
Racked and readying transition

Inspiring really. I bet those dudes on carbon where like... what the &^*& dayglow 80s just passed me? but I spent so much!!!!!!
And if they don't know, it is their loss.
