The bike course at the IRONMAN World Champs in Nice will define this race. We chat about bike set-up and how FulGaz might be a great way to help you prepare for the bike course.
We chat to the Partnership Manager for FulGaz, Bec Burns, about the IRONMAN World Champs Nice course. Bec tells us more about their Coach Cast initiative using pro triathletes to talk us through ascending and descending on the Nice course, plus we hear more about their plans for the IRONMAN World Champs course in Kona.
Race Motos and draft rules – the huge advantages for elite swimmers exiting at the front of the race. Why do IRONMAN still insist on keeping the 12 metre draft rule.
