Bicycle Technical Support

Swim
Start Info
You will be asked to rate
your swimming ability on a scale of 1-10, based on the [SWIM
ABILITY CHART] at packet pick-up on race
weekend. This
swim ability data will determine the official starting ORDER for race
day participants. On race morning there will be a single line for the start in the
pool. The fastest swimmers will start first. Please
reference the pool diagram in your course
map packet.
Note: Each of you selected your swim ability during the online
registration process as well, but since we recognize that many of you
would like to perhaps change your rating, we are offering this service
to make sure that you feel 100% comfortable with where you start on
race morning.
By eliminating the previous requirement of having participants enter
(and then later edit) their predicted 100 yard swim time in order to
create a swim start time assignment, this will dramatically reduce
confusion and potential anxiety. We hope you will find this to be a
positive change.
Attention
Spectators

Spectator Guide]
Spectators will be able to view the swim from the grandstands. Please
