I had a question about transition, in all the races I have done all your stuff is by your bike for transition. For IM there is the changing tents and I know you bag your stuff for T1, 2 etc. but what do you do with the stuff you are leaving behind - i.e. goggles/wetsuit after the swim.

Ah - they go into the bag your stuff just came out of. It makes for some wet/stinky stuff at the end of the day, let me tell you.

So if I'm in T1, I take all my stuff out of my bag for the bike, and in that bag goes my wetsuit, goggles, and anything I didn't take on the bike.

In T2, I take all my stuff out for the run, and in that bag goes my bike helmet, shoes, and anything I didn't take on the run.

If you use the special needs bags, you get them at different parts during the race, and can put stuff back in them. You can then pick them back up the day after the race.
