Kona Bike Check-in
Lots to see at the bike check-in. There was the weird: TJ Tollakson’s carbon motorcycle fairing (legal??). The scary: the DK tri team taking a swim after bike check-in. Stadler is unbelievably jacked – look out for this guy on race day. The other fairing: Luke McKenzie’s Vision Tech aero bottle that looks exactly like the old Profile bullet bottle that was outlawed years ago. The other scary: Chrissie Wellington, bubbly as a 40 of Olde English 800, gracious, nice, cheerful, yet looking like she can and will destroy all comers. There was more too; see for yourself:
