Was considering doing a back to basics ironman sometime, without all the cool toys...Perhaps IMNZ 05.
My idea was
Swim -no wetsuit (a rather chilly experience at Taupo)
Bike-basic wheels(32spoke box rims), no aerobars, steal frame, and most important of all on a single speed bike, 1 gear for 180km.
Run-well not sure it could be much simpler.
What do you guys think, would this be an awesome cool challenge or is it just a dumb idea?
