Parking and Transition

Lower lots below dam - walk up hill to transition. No boat ramp access for racers. You can come to the Upper bath house lot to drop-off gear / bike but no parking.  Parking is also available at the Overlook.

Transition will be first come, first serve. Please rack your bike with front wheel down in an alternating fashion.  Your belongings must be at the right of the wheel down and your bag can be underneath your rear wheel.  Bags along the side of the transition fence could result in lost belongings.  Please be considerate of your fellow athletes as to keep your space within your area. This is also a safety hazard when your belongings are spread out. 

The weather is looking to be in the low to mid 60's from 7am until 1pm! Water temp will be checked on Thursday and Friday but official temp will be Saturday monring at 6am.  I would be prepared for wet suit legal which is 78 and below. 

The Bike Course will exit the park heading right over the "Cry Baby Hills" which is a beautiful 7 mile roller coaster of beauty.
