We have been talking about doing this for a little while now and with some races coming up this is the perfect opportunity. If your name is not on this list please let me know by this site or facebook if you plan to attend.

We are meeting at the Boomtown in Vidor at 5:30. This should be a great time to try out a wetsuit if you just got one.

that's why you piss in your wetsuit it'll warm you up. lol, it is gross.. but effective for a little while.. then you realize you're piss is trapped against your body.

got your pm.

Yes we all will be wearing wetsuits more than likely. Most of us have a race in April so we are just getting some open water practice in. I think if it works out well out there we may try to make it a monthly or bi monthly event. Hell, maybe even weekly if everyone wants to.

that is awesome man, glad to hear it! It should be a great event for this area.

You can pick up an xterra sleeveless wetsuit for $99. That is what I bought and I really like it. I will see how I like it after the swim Wednesday though. :D
