There are some great tris up here in Nor Cal - with freshwater swimming. I grew up in Maine and one does NOT swim in the ocean in Maine. But lakes, rivers and ponds... woohoo!Originally Posted by Blue_Fedora
The one I'm doing this weekend is the Trek for Women. It's being held at a nice park where I've done 3 other tris and fit my schedule. It looks like a good series for starting out though. They have swim buddies in the water to help you out if needed.
They are doing one in Palm Springs Oct. 10. Just saying...

RE: the hotel thing
just do it!!
we've done it just outside DC (elevator), MD, NC and ME. Nobody really cares as long as you make an effort to show you are being respectful of other people and the hotel property.
and on the NC trip, we had both the mtb and the roadies LOL. The room was barely big enough for the bikes plus us!

We have always taken our bikes in the room. We usually bring an old sheet to put on the floor.
Have had some strange looks in regards to getting the tandem in the lift (this would work for any bike BTW that doesn't fit in a lift). Lift the front of the bike in the air and wheel it in on the back wheel. Usually lifts have enought height. Just hold the bike up so it doesn't touch the nice lift walls and you can get in anywhere.
