Herbert won his age group today at the QR Triathlon in CHATTANOOGA, TN. He was 9th overall and seems to have had the fastest bike split of the day which is the only important split anyways.

Well done Herbert!
Congrats H.
Nice work Herbert!!!
Awesome. Hell of a ride there Herbert!
Thanks for the kudos, that is very kind. I do really appreciate having the fastest bike split indeed, and I agree it is the most important split. 
But I must also admit that while there were over 500 starters at this race, the field was not super competitive. It is a fun local race that attracts many beginners and you can actually see quite a few mountain bikes and even bikes with baby seats. At the start I even noticed a guy in a sleeveless wetsuit with the zipper in the front like in that McDonalds surfer commercial.

Nice Job!
What were you riding ??
Congrats Herbert. You are too modest. The fastest bike split of the day is the fastest bike split of the day :-))
I rode my trusted Blade.
Way to go Herbert, I agree the bike split is the most important…and that’s coming from a former swimmer!
Cheers, Ian
Ian,
You may have come from swimming like Bruce Gennari, but both of you are now well rounded triathletes with great bike prowess.
I came from cycling and wish my swimming would have picked up as much as your cycling.

Congrats buddy!
What he said: "You are too modest. The fastest bike split of the day is the fastest bike split of the day :-)) "

Great job!!! Congrats
Good job Herbert! That is an incredible bike split that you put up. And to consider that it was your second race in two days makes it more impresive. It was great to see you in Guntersville on Saturday.
Sean,
You had a great race on Saturday yourself. If I remember correctly, about 30 seconds up on me.
Herbert
Congrats on doing the Blade proud. Now just bring the thunder next time we do Chatt and put those other turkeys to shame.
Congrats, but it shouldn’t be too shocking that a former pro mountain bike racer would have the fastest bike split in a mini.
I rode my trusted Blade.
Woah, that was weird. I read the reply above quickly and for a second thought is said “rusted blade”. I was wondering how you rust Ti.
Nice job Herbert.

Some rusted bolts on my stem unfortunately but no rusted titanium frame.
