Here is a cut and paste from the ironman arizona website…
The three-loop - OK, three-loop-and-a-bit - bike course is surprisingly challenging thanks to the many on the course that goes through the city of Tempe and in the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community located Northeast of the city.
What are these many? Is it challenging due to the many cannibals? You are biking as fast as you can so you won’t get eaten… Or many spectators? Perhaps something in the style of the Tour de France…
Anyone have any ideas? (Or many ideas?)
