Hello mate!
I did that very first ITU race in Leeds – oh my god, how bad was that?? Absolute shit show from start to finish.
Those roads look absolutely abysmal. Can blame 'UK roads' a bit, but Outlaw seems find a way around using tiny country roads
I think you were very kind to those roads.
Honestly the coarse is abysmal, I understand that here in the US Ironman is limited in its bike course choices by the surrounding communities and logistics ect. So I have ridden on some rough roads
But that is so dangerous
Great video Dan, very accurate review of the bike course. Having rode it myself last Friday I totally agree with your views, I feel much better about the route having ridden it myself now, the roads are no worse than any I would normally ride on it’s just the UK at the moment. Yes I would agree with it being Hilly but felt there was definitely plenty of recovery time between climbs which I liked. Can’t wait to get blitzed by the pros at some point as well 😂 I managed one lap of the run which again did have a few hills, but again totally manageable and for context I’m around 100kg so no whippet. All in all totally buzzing for the event now 🤩
I've tried Black Hill twice and still haven't managed it! 3rd time lucky… Great video thank you!
