This year the swim was in the local swimming pool

There is a possibility we may be able to use the OW venue me and Mrs SA go to (early discussion at the moment) but its 13 miles from T2 not sure about how to transport bikes etc there at the moment

So the question is would people prefer a OW swim or a pool swim?

Could everyone cycle there, and their kits bag could follow by car? then after the swim the bags can be taken back to T2?

Daft question - how hilly is the course?

I think I'm up for it

 it's not flat but there are no hills of the type I get excected by, it's generally a but like the bike home each day and only one speed bump of note. Honested sure someone will say if it's hilly.

If an issue we could always pop over the hills and take a look before hand that way we can say hello at the same time.

I think a recce would be a good idea - can't trust you when it comes to hills Mr. That Mountain Is A Speed Bump

“Lets go there it’s only a couple of miles away and almost flat.”

If we go OW then that changes the bike course, but makes it flatter a part from one hill
