Subject: RE: Joining a Tri Club... Welcome!
I know nothing about those two clubs - but have you contacted them? Don't be afraid to call them up and ask them about their schedule, and if they think you'd fit in with their levels.
AND - you can *always* go for a trial swim, ride, or run with the group before you throw down the money and make the commitment. If they tell you it's cash up front, you don't want to be a member of that group.
One other thing - and again I'm not familiar with the mainland clubs/races - do they put on any races? If they do, and if the races generally have good feedback, then the club is generally well-run and organized.
Just my $0.02. There are plenty of knowledgeable mainlanders on this forum that can likely answer this question better than I can. |
