Gael Force 2009 - Race in Words & Pictures - Part 1

It all started at the car park at Westport house, 6.30am. Waiting around for your bus to the start.





On the road,what a beautiful morning.





Some "relief" before the start. Look to the right you'll see 50 blokes doing what blokes do after drinking a litre of water on the bus





The Start on the beach






The first 5 KM is on road. The buzz is good, jokes & chat. All ahead of us.







Then we go off road and up a steep slippy hill and on to a bog track





Bog road for 3-4 KM. Very wet.






Transition to Kayak. The clock is stopped so time for a bite to eat, refill water and rest.





After Kayak which was relatively easy it's 5 KM to bike transition. More great views. See next post for more
