Looks like this Black Fly Triathalon, taking place today, Sat & Sun, has really ramped up its number of participants. Last year was the first running, and this weekend is the second running, and the WV area sort of resembles the Tour de France what with all the hundreds of serious racer bicyclists-runners-swimmers; men & women, all decked out in lycra and aerodynamic helmets, etc. Looks like the Valley has the "no vacancy' sign out as every hotel and parking lot is probably filled with bicyclers from all over New England & New York State.
WV has definately seen an increase in serious look'n bicyclers out practicing the 10-mile down, and 10-mile return run on Route 49 in the past couple months. Could be it was for bicyclers, up for a weekend, to get familiar with the bicycle segment of this weekend's Triathalon? As you know; if you want to win, you got to practice!
