1st tri, great day
Well organised, beautiful bike course, killer hill on run.
Whoever said that was a flat course has a lot to answer for
The hill at the start of the run got me

Great swim, good course great day
Lots of scarab members, fast course, great for beginners
Not a great time, but good course, friendly, good novice c
Good introduction to Open water, Local.
Repeating bits on the bike and run not a good idea

Be warned the bike is extremely hilly, it starts off up hill and doesn’t get better. However it is well organised and the scenery is beautiful
