California rain always arrives a day later than it was suppose to or sometimes it never arrives.

Bump for the Tuesday morning crowd. Any predictions on the winners?

I am going with a Potts and Carfrae repeat.

I raced a TT in 34 degrees, high winds and snow Sunday. I think I can handle "bad" weather in San Diego :-)

I'm pulling for one of the home team guys.

Go BJORN, SERGIO, JONAS, and JORDAN!

OR Saturday.......... rain builds charachter : )

not me, just shooting for a finish, given it's my first HIM. Goal is under 6 hours, and I will be happy. Certainly, some will be much faster than that, and some will be much slower, as well. Proud to be a MOP'er.

Since riding my Hed Jet 9s in last week's 15-20 mph cross-winds I've been constantly checking the weather report. The Weather Channel currently has 22 mph winds for Friday. I really hope it doesn't stick around for Saturday.

Hey Jay. I'm looking forward to racing!

Anyone have info on the current water temp in Oceanside?

OK - There are 40 guys listed in the MPRO division (listed below).

Outside of the usual 70.3 contenders (Potts, Thompson, Cunningham, Bjorn, etc.) there are a bunch of wicked fast ITU guys on the start list. I hope this is a preview of a 'post-Olympic' season where a lot of the ITU guys go long. With that said, there could be some surprises tomorrow in the pro race. Some other names to watch: Matty Reed (coming off a strong performance at Miami), Stephan Poulat, Will Clarke, Paul Amey, and Paul Tichelaar. Also, expect Limkemann and Adam Webber (in his first major pro race) to be up near the front after the swim.

Fred, just got back from surfing here in San Clemente. Water is about 58 here, and we're only 20 minutes north. I did SuperFrog two days ago and the ocean temp in Coronado was probably 59 or 60.

59 or 60 sure beats the heck out of ice skating on lake michigan! I'm looking forward to anything above 50 at this point for the air OR sea! can't wait to race!

STEPHANE POULAT and SYLVAIN SUDRIE are staying with me this week. Stephane should be right up there he said he has had a good training camp and is ready to go.

We will see Saturday

Are there any recommended roads near expo to ride on for nice 20-30min Fri afternoon ride?

San Luis Rey Bike Path is the easiest for an uninterrupted ride. Of course, riding up and down the coast can't be beat for atmosphere if you're from out of town.

Good luck.

Head north and ride the bike course north to Las Pulgas Road and back. All you need is a picture ID to ride onto the Base, but you have to stick to the northbound part of the bike course and then double back along that same route. The rest of the Base is off limits except on race day.

Fred, you won't care...j/k. I swam for an hour at Corona del Mar today. Ocean temp was 55 but I was comfortable. I did have a neoprene cap.

See you later in the week.

Were from? If your starting at the O-Side harbour, bike path or through base as the others have said...for only 20 or 30 minutes my vote would be bike path due to the minor traffic congestion you will have to go through to get on base and if you have not done it before it could be confusing and maybe scary as you are crossing a lane that is merging off of the interstate to head onto base as well.

Jay
The weather looks kinda crappy for Fri(:

But looking "ok" for Sat at this point:)
