OTT Class #2: Swim/Bike

Met at queen's beach and swam from one pier to the other and back. 800m?
Then biked from there to the Arco station and back. No drafting allowed. We stuck together until triangle park and then we set off in groups. The slow group went first. One minute later, the intermediate group went (that was me, and only me ). One minute after that came the fast people.

I passed all the slow group except one, and I think she should have started with me. I got passed by two of the fast group (out of five) and managed to catch the second guy back right at the end. I pulled up next to him, and he said "You want to race?" Stupidly, I said yes. We both know he can beat me any day of the week and twice on Sundays, but I gave him a run for his money. He told me later that it took all he had to pull ahead. That's nice, but someday I hope to stay even.
