Tribogota, very cool. And what a fabulous swim time.

thanks to all, yes, I am glad I don't have to swim off the coast of Ireland, swam there once in July and thought I would freeze my booty off. But most of our races are in cold mountain lakes, so we wear wetsuits for them. Otherwise, I do have some ideal training conditions, except rain 300 days a year,but it is only a part of the day, comes down like anything for 20 minutes, you look for something to stand under, and then it just stops...you get back on the bike, and keep going.... We are 2400M altitude, so it is chilly and cloudy, but never lower than 50 or higher than 70, so no freezing like the midwest, not too much over sweating like the southwest, except going up to 3000+ meters on our bikes.
