I'm trying to decide what to go with..seems to be so much choice that I am getting more confused the more I research...just like when it took me 3 months to buy a TV

I swam in the bay until Aug last year, even when it dropped to ~10 degrees. The more you do it, the easier it gets. I used to never swim alone, as I was so (irrationally, I hope) scared of anything that moved. These days, it's second nature. Having said that, I still wouldn't swim at Lorne etc by myself

Did they used to be Ironman Wetsuits?

Luc doesn't count though

Look after yourself mate...glad the prognosis is good.

Yep - the old "Challenger' series back in the mid 90's. 300/8/2. Couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Lilydale lake was pretty murky

Bump... I am hoping to climb Hotham in about 4 weeks. Currently running 10 speed ultegra, 11-28. A buddy who's ridden Hotham plenty of times recommended I go the 30, just in case. Will I have any issues putting this on my bike?

Average wattage for the TT was about 380, which suggests he was going at about 95%

Probably best to do some power testing so that you can do some informed training.

Never met him, but the name is legendary. RIP.

He had a local.

Speaking of Tommy Emmanuel - even if you only watch the first few minutes, this is well worth it.

I don't know, man... to my thinking, how can his running not suffer from doing hardly any running for the last 3 months, compared to the 100k weeks he was doing at the same time last year? On the surface, it might not look like it's going backwards.. but I reckon the lack of consistent swimming & running won't show itself until it does (if that makes sense). I have been on the bandwagon for a long time, and for mine, this year will not help him win Kona. I seem to be one of few who thinks that if he had a perfect prep this year & next, he could actually win it, regardless of who

Doesn't often get a mention, but I love it...
