Moving to Tulsa - where to live?

Hey welcome to Oklahoma!  I currently live in Owasso which is about 10 miles from Tulsa.  It's a smaller town, but big enough to have everything you need.  All the stores and food places you could want for the most part.  I went from 1st grade through high school at Owasso and loved it.  The graduating class is around 800 maybe now.  Where as some other schools around Tulsa (Broken arrow, Union and Jenks are huge).  In terms of sports...Owasso has been ranked #1 in the nation in baseball in the past 4 years and has won a ton of state championships.  Football we aren't as good, although we usually make it to the playoffs.  We are 6A but not big enough to get the kind of football players the other schools get.  The current cross country and track coach is very experienced and holds many records in Oklahoma as well as other states.  He placed 4th in the marathon olympic trials back in the day.

There is a local bike shop in owasso that the owner is a triathlete and a good friend of mine.  He did IMLouisville last year with about 7 of us from Owasso.  We just started an Owasso tri and bike club this year and have 80 members.  I'd say 1/2 those are triathletes.  We also have 12 people signed up to do IMFlorida this year.  We will do IMKansas and IMBranson as well.  The rest of the people are somewhat beginners to tri's and will do sprints and oly's this year.  The club does EVERYTHING.  We have people who do road races, mtn bike races, adventure races, ultra marathons...It's a lot of fun.

If I was to live somewhere else it would probably be broken arrow.  The have some nice neighborhoods to live in, although there schools are pretty big which is something I don't like.  Anyway thats my $.02 let me know if you want anymore specific information.

Well if you live "IN" the city and not in a suburb of the city then you are not going to be able to just step out your front door and ride unless you want to ride with a bunch of traffic and no bike lane.  Where I live there are a few 4 lane roads we take to get out of town which aren't bad at all.  Then we ride away from tulsa and the roads arn't very busy at all.  The trail you are talking about is nice, but i prefer to run on that trail as opposed to biking.  I can't speak for the other suburbs as i don't live there, but with them all being larger I would guess you would have to drive your bike somewhere.  If you come to town looking for houses let me know and i can tell you some of the routes we ride in Owasso and Tulsa.

First of all BA is only 20 minutes from Owasso lol....Very close.  As for the website for the owasso tri club...We are currently partnered with the local bike shop in owasso (360 Sports) This is our first year we have had club tri uniforms etc. So we are a semi new group.  Although a lot of us have been doing tri's for 3 or 4 years and some have done a full ironman.  Most of the stuff we do together is just the riding.  We have tues/Thurs/Sat rides every week.  Tues/thurs start at 6pm and saturday at 6am.  The bike shop has a website with some info, but not much www.360sportsbikes.com

The TAT group is out of tulsa.  I don't know much about them, but see some of them at the local races.  I think their website is www.tatok.org Anyway PM me if you need anymore info.
