4000 “athletes”
Age group only race
60 slots. (AMENDED)
Drafting?
Doping?
Show me some photos and give me the lowdown
I’m confused by what you’re suggesting? 
It’s been an AG race only at least for a couple of years. It has 60 slots. It’s well known as the largest 70.3 in the world. There was no egregious drafting that I saw last year
This from the man who was poo-pooing the current drafting rules over on the 113 thread 
No poo-pooing them, just getting my head around them!
With those new rules, I fail to see how 4000 people on one course can not draft?
Or does the hill and descent help out with that?
Nothing against age-group only races, but reading about the Gran Fondo doper(s) and the 12hr TT one, makes me think about getting the kudos of an overall win at a 70.3 event, the largest one in the world at that, would perhaps encourage some nefarious behaviour???
