You can't ride fixed in Triathlons - they consider it unsafe (why, I don't know). I rode Eton SS and was about the only person doing so.
Hippo is right about the drafting - 4m spacing is required but you have to be really obvious to get penalised. Anyone in to bikes enough to be posting on here will be a good enough cyclist to drop most of the field. Just watch out for the full on TT guys with their carbon wheels and twat hats.
London is a horrible Tri - you swim in the Thames FFS. Blenheim is the nicest swim, the ride is a bit up & down.
