Extreme Veteran  787    The Woodlands/Magnolia, TX. |  Subject: RE: LONE STAR IM 70.3Rattlesnake - 2009-12-13 7:15 PM just tried to book rooms at the inn at the waterpark. Mentioned i was with the triathlon but they said they are sold out. Ayone else have a good idea about where to stay thats cheap? lonestar website has some other hotels listed too....http://www.ironmanlonestar.com/lodging.php there are a TON of hotels and even more condo and home rentals that are in close prox. some of smaller condos/houses can be rented that time of year for the same cost as a hotel. |

| Veteran 147 TEXAS | Subject: RE: LONE STAR IM 70.3 Use a disc and aero front wheel should not be a problem at all. I am using Hed jet 60 front and Hed jet 90 rear. 3rd time to do the race with this set up. Always windy but no real problem. |

Elite 4235 Spring, TX | Subject: RE: LONE STAR IM 70.3 dalessit - 2009-11-23 12:53 PM So what kind of wheel setup are you natives running at Lonestar, based on the fact that it looks like you can get some nasty wind there. I'll be riding with a Jet 90 Front and a wheelcover on the back. Does anybody have a link to the bike course profile? Any idea of how flat it is? |

There is one, I think, "overpass" you go up, but it's not steep, more of a longer one...and I think that's it, oh, and the little bump going up to the seawall, otherwise FLAT FLAT FLAT. |

Yes, still at Hood for a few more months. I change command early April, hang out for a bit, and then off to grad school---don't know where yet as I'm waiting on acceptance stuff. 2 years grad school, then 2 years in Sosh. We'll have to link up at Lonestar and say hi! |

Elite 4235 Spring, TX | Subject: RE: Memorial Hermann Ironman 70.3 Texas For those of you from Houston: Are you going to stay down in Galveston on Saturday night or just make the drive down that morning? Where is everyone else staying? I'm thinking about Texas City, but I don't want any problems getting onto the island that morning. Thoughts? |
