I mean, you’ve just put it all in the bag rather than spread out. Presumably you’ve got bike shoes, trainers, wetsuit, trisuit etc.

May have followed you out of competitor parking, do you have a 9 & 6 in your reg?
Drove most of the bike course, overall pretty good. Most potholes marked, some soul destroying straights but also some lovely wee lanes & villages. 28 miles seems a long way driving 
.
Great signage, couldn’t possibly go wrong

ETA…as @mw22 mentioned rammed & scorchio. I pity the volunteers waiting for the last visitors to go before they can set up T1.

Gonna head back after some grub at the Thames Head. Parking chaps confirmed we’d be fine to get back in after 6. Gate can just be opened.
Much happier about this. Far less faff tomorrow.
@gingerbongo I’ll be around with the tape later.
Have we got to run thru that gravel car park? That’s my ankle spanjanked

Yeah, the run goes through that carpark, around
both lakes & a loop out to the back of beyond

It looks a long way.

Can you get in without registering properly? As I’ve missed that boat now. But would liek to have a wonder about. They won’t let me in teh main lake entrance

There wasn’t much to see. They hadn’t even put the bike racking out.

I’d changed my plan from being in mamil cycling kit, to going for wearing my triathlon event t-shirt, but now, with our style guru making a different choice, I’m feeling that might be wrong.

Anyone else around? @Poet, @pach (his bro) and I are just getting kicked out of the water park.
