Cool races:

Please tell us that Paulthomas didn't ride up to the brunch without wearing a helmet and that he had just straddled the bike for your picture.

Nope, PT was riding around at the UP Run, prior to the brunch. Lots of people riding around here w/o helmets.

Great pictures. Nice to wake up to when it is raining here today :)

Good luck to everyone racing!

Crazy people. I hope they all make it safely back to the mainland with their grey matter undamaged!

Hey Cathy,

Great job on the pix. You are the official ST Kona reporter. It is fun to wake up and get all of the pix and stories. Everyone looks like they had a great time.

Thanks! Have another great day!! :-)

Thanks, great pics!

So Graham made an appearance. Would love to here if anything interesting was said knowing what he has openly said about slowtwitchers.

Thanks for the great pics Cathy :-)

I see that Paulo and Dev Paul have finally met. Who won the arm wrestling at the Lava Java???? It is interesting to see that Dev Paul is actually shorter than Paulo ;-)

Awesome!! Thanks Cathy...I love Norman's bike too!!

"Would love to here if anything interesting was said knowing what he has openly said about slowtwitchers"

My sense is that Graham does not have anything but good things to say about Slowtwitch and the members of this forum - he's said as much to me. It's a great thing about the sport. What he, or anyone else for that matter, does not find helpful, are the few people who are always very negative and have no ideas to contribute to making the events better for everyone. They just whine and complain about everything. I believe that it was these people that he was refering to.

Cathy,

Thanks for the pics. Looks like it was a great party. Fabulous location. Leave it to Dan to do it just right.

There are now 2 photos of Paulo and Dev together?? I'm starting to wonder if their whole 'fight' was just a cover...

If I was eferand or Dev I wouldn't want to be the last guys pictured touching one of Normann's tyres. :-)

Hmmm...Paulo is a good sport for going along with the pics but, dang, look at that body language (arms crossed, space separation,...).

I think they'll just have to agree to disagree and find some connection in their respective love for tri.

Thanks for the pics Cathy; not as good as being there but it sure helps.

Fossil carbon is planetary poison.

Great to see the pics, thanks. For some of the "knuckleheads" we hear from here on ST, it's really nice to have SO many who want to make this a great site and bring us together once in awhile!

It was nice to see Support Crew in the backround of the one pictures.

Also,I've looked at the other groups of pictures you've got included and it makes me mad that I missed the CdA event!

Have a great trip!!!!

sweet pics! everyone looks great, like they're having a blast.

nice shoulders and pedicure by the way!

The surf does look pretty good. Better than So Cal at the moment. We haven't seen you since the Wine Country century and you look absolutely AWESOME! Keep it up!

Love the pictures! Can't wait to see more from race day! Any of Michelle Jones? or Macca for Glyn:)?

Thanks again.

"There are now 2 photos of Paulo and Dev together??"

The world as we know it is coming to an end!

Next thing you know we'll be a looking at a picture of Dev and Paulo, tommorow afternoon, embracing just after Dev crosses the finish line ( to a huge PB) and admits for the first time that he has been coached by Paulo all along and that this whole Dev vs. Paulo thing has been a rouse!! ;)
