Ojai is very hilly, and since at the moment you're training for a sprint, might I break from the pack and suggest a road bike as opposed to a tri specific rig?
Do you have a local bike shop you like, or would you like us to help you find one?
What do you think about coming up to the Women's camp for a day or two to get to know some of the ladies and try out one of the Xantusia bikes that Slowman has available to borrow?
