Don't tell my coach but I just had 4 beers and now I'm going to shoot some Fireball whiskey, bitches. And I say bitches with a all the love in my heart.
There is some excellent banter going on in this thread. Reminds me about what got me excited to join Team TRS, in the first place. The energy here and the momentum is building. The only limits to what the team and the brand can do is up to Ben and us. I had a funny thought: what if someday everyone wanted to sign up for a race that we put on and branded with the TRS logo, a challenge to the othe big branded races out there (Ironman). And what if we allowed the same number of males and females to race??? I got goosebumps!
Ate you rinsing your hair with fresh water before getting in the pool? My hairstylist told me that pre-rinsing helps to keep your hair from absorbing a lot of chlorine. It has worked for so far. I just take a quick rinse in the showers before putting on my cap and hitting the pool.
@Duckies Did you register for Rocketman? Opened yesterday for veterans and today for all. Looks like its filling up quick. I registered for the Duathlon. Hope to see you there!
@Duckies I was thinking about trying Rocketman this year since it's likely the last year they will have it. But Miami might be easier logistically for you. Either one is a trek for me from Dallas.
So got the fit done and test rode a bunch of bikes. Did not like the cervelo, thought the ride was too stiff. Liked the Orbea Orca and the Felt AR. The Boardman line just does not fit me well. That is where I am right now. Any thoughts on Di2 shifting? Is it worth the extra cost? It is smooth shifting, that is for sure.
OMG you just described my whole last season of racing! If there is a TRSRacing award for the person with the most D, E, F races, then I'm going to be a winner.
You are not alone... Wish I could get all the new shiny stuff, but alas I work for miserly attorneys ( no offense intended), but seriously they don't pay! Therefore I got a lot of old stuff too, but it works and I feel happy just to be in the sport of triathlon.
