Transition fun

Here's a pic' of my mock transition zone. Directions for use:

Transition 1 (T1)

1. Dip feet in bucket of water with swimming hat, goggles and ear plugs on (yup, this does look daft!)

2. Run to bike whilst taking off swim apparel above.

3. Wipe feet on towel whilst putting cycle hat and number belt (facing backwards) on.

4. Run (rather gaily on tip-toes) with bike to the 'mount zone'. Note: shoes held horizontal by elastic bands.

5. Mount bike and get pedalling. Attempt to get wet feet into talc-lined cycle shoes. Keep cycling!

5.5. Put shades on to stop flies smacking in eyes.

T2

6. On approaching dismount zone remove feet from shoes and perform a moving-dismount (quite tricky for uncoordinated fools like me!)

7. Run to transition with cycle helmet firmly fastened.

8. Rack bike then remove helmet.

8.5. Switch number belt to back.

9. Whack running shoes on and peg it!

Sweet.
