Pro 6767   the Alabama part of Pennsylvania | Subject: RE: How did you come to BT? I was on a backpacking site when someone started a thread about other sites people liked. BT was mentioned, and I decided to get back into tri's at that point. And the other site's "COJ" was filled with political diatribes and animosity that made it unpleasant to keep visiting. So BT is now my more common "hang out" site. |

Elite 3144 | Subject: RE: How did you come to BT? I'm in the middle of the hunt for my first decent bike and I found the gear review section here. When I clicked over to the discussion boards I thought it seemed like a great place to find information. I look forward to being a more active member when I actually get started doing races! |

Extreme Veteran 318 Lunenburg, Nova Scotia | Subject: RE: How did you come to BT? I was looking for tips on transitions, I think. I checked out a few sites, but always came back to this one. About a year ago, I stopped looking at the other sites, besides a quick peak when I hear of one I haven't seen. BT always wins, for the tips, support, and pure entertainment. |

Master 2665 The Whites, New Hampshire | Subject: RE: How did you come to BT? Did a search and TriNewbies came up. Hung out there for awhile when someone mentioned loving TNO because "that other site" was so huge and overwhelming. I had a lot of time to kill, so huge sounded good to me, and I clicked over. Haven't gone back to TNO, and I hear they are quite different now. |

Pro 5011 Twin Cities | Subject: RE: How did you come to BT? Long, long ago, we came from TNO to look at the "Bizarro World" forum. Never really posted until recently, though. |

Champion 7547 Albuquerque, New Mexico Bronze member | Subject: RE: How did you come to BT? Mid 2005 I typed "triathlete" into yahoo and Beginnertriathlete.com was one of the first links. Lurked on the forums for a couple of months until after I did my second tri. |
