    "Extreme" Sports Attire?

    The only race I have done was with the swim in a pool. The wetsuit option is definitely something I would consider though. They aren't that expensive unless you get a high end one. My issue is about training. It probably will not happen but I don't want anyone to think I am trying to show...

    Google Chrome...

    Google Chrome has a lot of potential but it still is pretty buggy from what I have seen. Use it for things that are not important.
