Subject: RE: Favorite Ontario RacesDepends on the criterion - for me it's asthetics and being outdoors. I've been using the tri's as opportunities to to mini TRI-cations so over the past two summers I've been getting around I find there's always one really nice aspect and another that's not so nice. I've done nothing longer than Belwood. Grimsby TAT - Riding the service roads next to the vineyards - beautiful. Swimming on the pebbly shore with lots of waves... not so pretty. Belwood Sprint - Again - loved biking through the country roads. Running single file along a railroad track seeing everyone in the opposite direction... kind of boring. Toronto Island - both sprint and TAT - beautiful swim, flat bike, pretty run - but it's all loops - the longer the race - the more loops. Ottawa - by far the best run - loops but through the woods on a wood chip trail. Bike is pretty too in the fall. Pool swim though. Neat thread! |
