1. Basic triathlon bike maintenance. The first thing I noticed was his chain - it was rusty. Six drops of chain lube could have prevented this rust. Beginner triathletes often know little about basic bicycle maintenance. The chain should be cleaned when dirty and lubricated.

Is it me - or did that stuff appear from absolutely nowhere?
Layne and I were talking this morning and she snapped her fingers to illustrate just how fast it happened.
“Where did it come from?” she asked, completely perplexed. “I just cleaned up my office yesterday!”
It’s amazing how fast life moves. Sometimes in just a couple of days you can get a surprise email to set up an appointment, a good networking opportunity, an update for your website, an unexpected phone call - and, oh, your next newsletter is coming due…
