The race was most memorable for Nick Despres' fantastic shot of me riding and looking like a pro. He's an award winning professional photographer so it is no surprise he creates a great image. You should check out his work via his blog linked above. Despite being the last weekend in August it was a dull morning with misty rain and a gusty force 6 cross / head wind which made handling the bike a bit sketchy due to the deep section Zip 808 front wheel. This was made worse by also having a loose tri bar - the gear cable running through it was the only thing stopping it falling out.
I completed the course about 30 seconds slower than my season's best - most of which I put down to bike handling - or an in ability to! Average power was good showing that I still have some good form.
