Transition!
Swim exit
Looking towards the swim start
Swim begins just on the other side of this bridge
The start of the bike, this intersection (Mill & Rio Salado) is also the turnaround point for each leg of the bike course.
About 1/4 mi down on Rio Salado
Passing Sun Devil Stadium
Still on Rio Salado
Passing golf course on the right
Just after turning on McClintock - bridge over the Salt River/Tempe Town Lake
Descending other side of bridge
Passing the drive-in theatre (in college, my husband used to "walk-in" instead, with a case of beer and a folding chair)
Just after turning on McKellips
About to pass under Loop 101
Roads are a bit wet after the Christmas rains
Passing Casino Arizona
Still on McKellips
Approaching the left on Alma School
Making the left onto Beeline Highway
Headed out on the Beeline
There is some snow up on Four Peaks
View out to the right - Mesa?
Rains have really made some new potholes since I was here a month ago
Last few miles climb up Beeline
Look - cacti! :)
Turnaround is just around that last curve
Over the top and...
down to the turnaround
The turnaround is just before the light at Shea
