good Chicago Tri-Bike Leg 25.44 mi 01:33 16.5mph pace

I was nervous about the bike leg because I was expecting it to be more crowded and was worried that the rain would hit. Thankfully having the two inner lanes of LSD really gave us enough room. Pretty nuts seeing guys with crazy Tour de France style bikes and suits. I managed to keep close to 18 MPH going north on the first lap but quickly realized I had a tail wind. The wind was gusty at times but nothing too bad. My low back got a little stiff in the second lap. I think I also need to invest in clip-in pedals/shoes because my feet slipped off my pedals a number of times.
