NC is an absolute nightmare to travel to. I love it there and flew in and out for months. But can we talk about how bad ass this result is?! WOW, crushed it!

Congratulations on a great race & getting that Championship spot! It was great seeing you there (we met you & your cool camera briefly at check in). It was an awesome day to race - glad to know I wasn't the only one taking in water on the swim!😂 Anyway, sorry about your bike, hope it's not as bad as it initially looks!

Hey Chris, great racing - saw you out there crushing it! what a day it was! PR'd as well. Not sure what happened in ATL, but both mine and the friend I was travelling with bikes didnt make it on our connection either! Luckily they made it home to us the next day. My bike was good, but my friend's front fork got some damage :(
