East Grinstead Triathlon
East Grinstead tri is one of our local events. A great event that is very well organized and is fun to race. This year they had a top 12 race, the fastest 12 all started together in the pool with two to a lane. I was lucky enough to be in the race. I have a good swim but then ran outside to be met with a rain storm. I was in 5th place out of the swim and pulled my self in to 3d with 2nd in sight.With the wet conditions I had a machanical where my back wheel slipped in to the frame. This can happen with horizontal drop outs. I had to stop and fix it and found my self well down in 9th place. I ran my heart out to be one of the quickset on the day but was still only good enough for 9th. My bike has now been set up properly!
