Very nice. Keep on reaching!

Great race dude, congrats! Your report had me loling a few times too. Well done.

Great write-up!!

"I knew I was losing it when I started throwing Red Bull in my face - an experience that definitely didn’t give me wings but did cause an acute loss of vision." Lmao!

Nice race greg! Congrats!

I have always been fearful on throwing coke or redbull on my face.


While I’m new to this as well, be careful about adding solids to your bike nutrition. Solids are harder to process and slows things down, especially at the speeds you are racing at. Which could negatively affect your ability to absorb all the nutrition.

Just something to consider and think about.

Thanks Steve!

Good point about the solids, that's actually why I went all gels in the first place. I'll have to do some experimenting, perhaps a bigger breakfast will be sufficient.

Can't wait to see you crush at Florida!

Congratulations....Great Race. Enjoy Hawaii . Love Louisville. Love Kona.

"Basic Bitch Special", hahaha.

Nice report... reading these makes me want to dip my toes into Iron distance racing. Congrats on a great race!
