Subject: RE: Moving to Dayton (Wright Patt) I 2nd the bike trails as you can almost go forever from Dayton and not have to worry much about roads. There are times when the trails themselves can be busy though and a pain if your trying to get in a specific workout, but that is the same as riding on the road though. Well except the cars . I am not sure of the exact paths but I know if you get just a bit out of town it becomes rural in a hurry and good riding. A few things you could check out is Dayton Cycling Club, I'm not sure how active they are as a club but they tend to have quite a few rides from what I can tell. I tend to ride out of Troy Ohio (just North of Dayton ) with a few others and are always welcome to new riders, if your interested.A few other things to check out, Ohio River Road Runners (ORRRC ), they put on 2-3 running events per month with an average of 100 participates and if you join the club ($40? ) then the majority are free. There is a good number of triathletes in the group that could lead you in a good direction. As for Triathlons look up HFP racing, they put on some really good events. I believe they have 2 at Ceasar Creek which is just outside of Dayton. For the pool, I have only ever been to the Kettering Rec. Center a few times and thought it was nice. Not sure what the price for membership or visits is though. |
