    Not doing the race but will be present to support the team. This is my hometown race and I am available to help with any questions.

    Thanks for the support Rob - I'm IN for the 70.3 - Will book up today. Had been on the fence about Tupper Lake for awhile but this is same day, much closer, and looks like a cool venue.

    Assume there are a few other ENer's out there.

    Can't wait to come back to the Challenge AC Aquabike! Hopefully the swim course will be modified (as I understand it is) from last year! It will be a great training day for me and my hubby! Looking forward to seeing you again, Robert!

    Hello all! I am signed up for the Aquabike, good training day for me. I did a relay last year as the swimmer, and I want to see if I can do the bike after that brutal swim. I am local, I will just stay in a hotel the night before the race. Last year I stayed at a tiny place outside of AC that was totally reasonable (if a bit shady) and had no trouble driving in for the swim.

    By the way, I signed up for the aquabike half. Had to be an official part of it all.

    My intentions are to register (eventually) for the Aquabike full like last year. I will be there image

    Hope that everyone is doing well.

    I did register for the Full Aquabike event a couple of weeks ago.

    Did anyone make it to the bike course preview ride this past weekend that Steve Del Monte from Delmo Sports put together? Would love to hear thoughts on the one huge loop, versus the course from last year.

    Thanks.

    I get tons of emails from DELMO sports but heard nothing about the course preview. Let us know ahead of time next time.

    I hadnt checked the site in about two weeks but it is clearly there now.

    From Delmo Sports Web Site, they are having another course preview ride if anyone is interested.

    Hi all,  I just realized I didn't say hello through this intro thread.  I signed up for the full aquabike and will use is as a great training day.  I'll also be going on the course preview ride on 6/7.  Looking forward to seeing everyone!
  • John BayoneJohn Bayone
    Is anyone planning on attending the bike course preview ride this Sunday?
    If you are and wanted to meet up before hand I will be there and let me know.
    It has a check in from 7 to 8am and the full starts at 8am and the half starts at 9am.

    Not sure what anyone else's thoughts are but if you wanted to get there earlier and start earlier I am open to the idea.

  • Robert SaboRobert Sabo
    I will be there around 7-7:15
  • John BayoneJohn Bayone
    See you Sunday, I will be there.
  • Doug HerrDoug Herr
    Ditto here.  I'll be there in the 7:15 range.  Forecast looks good!
