Nice to see a Canadian long-course triathlete, testing + training among the evergreens and not the saguaros. Bet those Timbits weren't flown in for the photoshoot either!

Great testing! For me the comfort aspect, especially on a LD IM, is even more important than to save some watts. Off the bike with no back or neck pain, so i can run the marathon really fast, saves me more time.

Looks like you have a front derailleur cover...no chainring cover? Sometimes that's a wash if yaw distribution is low single digit...and for the crankset you're rocking.

The box of Timbits 😂

nice work Jackson it will pay off looking forward to your next race

Good step to really start aero testing. I think more data and more controlled conditions are always better. So if you can afford it, go to a windtunnel with a well proven crew. An important before going there would be to check your position with a biomechanics professional (like Lucy). Some windtunnels might already include this in their service or at least offer it. The people from the windtunnel will have the right ideas on what to try out to go faster (and the equipment to test it). Afterwards test on the road, if it transfers into real conditions. Build a crew of professionals in their respective field. Might be more costly but in todays era, where every bit counts, it will pay off in the long run.

Would love to see you test an 8% tilt with the Kask Mistral size M with Timbits taped to the top tube.

Great insight. I think you have your bike set-up dialed in. I would focus on your high-end running speed. Plenty of track sessions so that you can sustain a 3:20/km running pace. Good luck in St-George. Looks like you'll be the fastest Canadian for sure now that Lionel is out. It would have been another epic battle.

I found similar results with my GiBLI and FasTTT bars, massive drop in CDA from 25% to 15%

Really pushing that tim hortons sponsorship agenda!!!! Haha tim but power

move your BTA up higher and towards your chest, simulate the bottle in the kit without it being in the kit

If you can borrow the newer Specialized and Giro helmets, those would be good to test.

Was a bunch of comments

you need to go sleeveless..... those are holding you back.

looking good!
