We have been in Wiesbaden now for 2 days resting up and seing the town.
We were able to see the shopping district downtown as well as some of the country side.
We are staying at a hotel right on the Rhein (yet the view is costly, given all of the traffic!) and very close to the swim start of the race Sunday.
We checked in to the race site this morning....and then, as planned, drove the 90k bike course. On the elevation charts, it shows NO flats on this course.....well, we are here to tell you that there are indeed NO flats!!!! This will be one of the most challenging bike courses we have seen, given the number and length of the climbs and the technical decents, not to mention the quality of the ride surface. This ride will be a long day in the saddle. The only plus is the scenery...some of the views are spectacular.
Its past supper time now, and we should really find some grub. We will check in before race start with more news from Wiesbaden!
Brian and Heather
Taking you on the road with us!!!!
We will be blogging while on the road.....check back on March 27th as we leave for California 70.3 Ironman.

Hi Guys,
Or should I say Wilkommen in Deutschland! I hope you're enjoying your time here in Germany and looking forward to tomorrow's event in 'them there hills'. I'm racing in Regensburg tomorrow.
All the best for tomorrow :-)
