Hi Chelsey, I think the place that the club would go to is Giuseppe’s. There’s also a lot of breweries but that might be better for post-race. Have a good race!

Welcome to the club, Greg! Some great riding in Frederick. There’s a club happy hour this Thursday if you would like to join and meet some other members.
RunBikeDavid replied to the topic New Member in the forum Introduce Yourself 1 month, 2 weeks ago

Welcome to the club! You could try looking at Waterman’s or Pleasants Landing for something towards the end of the year. Usually there are quite a few club members at one of those races.

If you’d like to do something for Juneteenth, there is an upcoming run and a ride for the weekend of June 19-20. The run is a trail run if you’d like to try running past all the Civil War Defenses along Anacostia. For the bike ride, there is a shorter solidarity ride and a longer ride all the way out to…[Read more]

The Six Pillars Century is coming up. A good one if you’d like to ride the IM Eagleman course or around that area.

Hi Martha, you can also try posting in the DC Tri Off-Road Interest FB group. There were a several folks that did it a couple of years ago, not sure if everyone sold their suits!
RunBikeDavid replied to the topic Looking for swim coach in the forum Swim 3 months, 1 week ago

Hi Axel, you could also try posting in the Masters Swim FB group to see if any of the coaches are certified. USMS also has a list of certified coaches and clubs in the area, if you look under “Potomac Valley.”

Good luck!

Hi Margaret, not sure if you’ve tried the pool reservation but they have a list there. I’ve seen folks posting on social media for Marie Reed, Takoma, and Wilson so or sure they are open!

You could try checking the IM Lake Placid FB group. Every now someone posts if they have a group house or had to cancel their reservation. From what I’ve read, hotels usually have rooms with a single bed available in case you need that as a backup!

An upcoming Amputee Cycling Clinic is in need of a few trainers and volunteers! They would only need the trainers during the clinic and it can be any kind. Just something to offer support and stability as most of the participants have never been on a bike before. If you’d like to help out, here’s a form to sign…[Read more]

Hi Mark, I don’t know about Total 200 but I’ve see some Virginia rides listed and some of them occurred last year like the Culpepper Century and Loudon Gravel Grinder so I think a good chance of them occurring again.
RunBikeDavid replied to the topic 2021 Race Safety – Thoughts? in the forum Races 5 months, 1 week ago

I did the Hagerstown Duathlon where I believe they followed the USAT guidelines. The bikes were spaced out more in transition so instead of having 6-7 bikes per rack it was only 3 which felt luxurious. It was a timed start and you had to wear a face covering when not racing. They had bin at the start if you wanted to drop your mask and also gave…[Read more]
