Member 27 | Subject: Tri Clubs NYC/Brooklyn I'm wondering if anyone can recommend some tri clubs in the Brooklyn/NYC area. I am training with a friend but we also wanted to join a club. The issue is that she lives in Manhattan and I in Brooklyn. We are trying to find a team with workouts in both areas since it isn't accessible for either of us to travel that often. A team that is low-cost and beginner friendly (like Brooklyn Tri) is ideal! Any ideas? Does such a team exist? |

Any ideas? Does such a team exist? Brooklyn tri does group rides over to 9W, but I think those are the only non-Brooklyn workouts or events. Even with that, it's a great club because, as you noted, it's relatively inexpensive and is very beginner-friendly. Something like 1/3 of the membership has done 3 tris or less. Its definitely a "you get out what you put into it" kind of club. There are lots of opportunities to train with really fast people and great coaches, or you can just hang out and socialize with a bunch of cool, like-minded people. |

Member 27 | Subject: RE: Tri Clubs NYC/Brooklyn Awesome- thanks for the info, I'm definitely strongly leaning to Bk tri. Sounds like you're in it? If so can I ask you if there's a good range in pace among the membership? I ask because I'm in a running club and none of the 9+ minute per mile runners ever show up for the workouts so I find myself running alone at group workouts! If it's more beginners I'm guessing there are some slower folks around...? Thanks! |

If it's more beginners I'm guessing there are some slower folks around...? Thanks! Definitely! I've been a member for about five years. The first thing the former club president said to me when I was asking about joining was "some of us are very fast; some of us are very slow." |
