Just browsed over to the Columbia Triathlon Association website…
Apparently the 2007 Columbia Tri will have an Aquavelo division. What is that about? Is this for the whiners that can’t hack the hilly run course?? That’s the whole frickin’ point about this race!!! If you want a “flat and fast” run course, go somewhere else!
I thought Aquabikes were for 1/2 IMs and IMs, where you wanted to get a long race in but were hurt (or didn’t care for) the run. But to add an Aquabike to an Olympic race that already sells out months in advance (and already has a crowded bike course with the current # of entrants) seems nuts to me.
