Dave A.'s profile

   

I know my rating is brutal, but after racing this wonderful race for 9 years, I had a brutal experience this year because of Tri-California. The race itself is still beautiful, hard, and fun. However, after another price increase, and another setback in production quality, I'm ready to say good bye to this event for good. It is simply not worth the $60 per night camping, screwed up timing, and now the traffic leaving on Sunday. They had the nerve to check every single car on the way out. I sat in traffic for 2 hours! Do yourself a favor, skip this mess and stick to another smaller race. The smaller production companies out there are simply making triathlon a better experience. These big companies like Tri-cal have lost touch with what triathlon is all about. See everyone at the races this summer in Norcal!
