I'm planning on doing my first half-Ironman distance race next year. I'll be doing the "long course" event (really a non-branded HIM race) at Pacific Crest in June, but I would like to do an Ironman-branded event that fall, too. I had originally thought maybe Tahoe, but I hear the bike course is pretty rough. While I don't want it to be "easy", I'd like to survive. :)
The other caveat is that it has to be driving distance (overnight is fine) from Oregon; I don't fly, and don't have any desire to ship my bike (though renting one at the venue might be an option).
Here's what I'm seeing as options:
Silverman
Tahoe
Vineman
Boise
Lake Stevens
Victoria, BC
Vancouver, BC
Any recommendations?
