What you should know
- Body marking and bike check-in happen before the swim start — arrive early and rack in your assigned slot.
- Wetsuit legality depends on measured water temperature race morning; be ready to swim without one.
- Drafting is illegal in age-group racing — keep clear of the rider ahead or expect a penalty.
- Helmets must be buckled before you touch the bike and stay on until it is re-racked.
- Swim starts at Riverside Park and the finish is in Central Park, so plan gear-bag logistics.
