A few impressions from Budapest
The 2010 Dextro Energy ITU WCS Finals are almost upon us and we are in Budapest to cover the event. We captured a few impressions from the days leading up to the big event in Budapest, Hungary. The weather was reasonably nice when we arrived on Thursday, but it has been raining all day so far on Friday. The word though is that the rains should stop by noon on Saturday. The bike course looks very challenging as is and hopefully the rains will stop indeed.
