Some feedback on yesterday’s event.

First of all kudos to the organizers and volunteers. GREAT JOB!

Second the area and the park are beautiful the stopping town on the ride is very quaint and beautiful.

Third the cycling route (at least the 40 mile one) nice woods but narrow roads and a lot of traffic, far from ideal for a large group of cyclists.…

I would like to nominate Jenna Hagger for Courtney Waltimyer Most Improved Athlete Award.

Jenna went from being a relative new tri athlete to winning several races in her age group and completing an Ironman in an extremely respectable place. She has trained very hard this past season and it showed. Tremendous improvement.

Kudos Jenna.

This bike has been highly upgraded from its…
