Hey Slowtwitch. Really need some help here please. Moving to USA and wanting some advice on which towns/areas are highly recommended. What I’m looking for:
1.Great cycling roads and routes. Road conditions must be really good.
2. Swimming pools.
3.Variety running routes.
4.Good vibe town and culture.
5. Road safety obviously.
6.Nice people.
I have currently been in Tucson for a bit and can’t really speak highly of the cycling because road conditions are shocking. It’s also a much older community it seems.
Heard Boulder is great but also heard it’s very clicky.
Other places I’m interested are Asheville, Greensboro, Austin, St George and The Central Coast.
But like I mentioned I really am not sure and unsure of the USA and the best place to base myself for my sport. I don’t need to be located in a downtown or in the city area and happy to be on the outskirts.
Thanks again and appreciate anyone who can help a guy out
Where are you moving from and why the USA?
I'm in the USA and was looking for the "perfect" place to live for triathlon life about 6 years ago but after extensive research nothing fit the bill for me personally. I am older now and decided that where I currently live (cold climate in winter but plenty of space) suits me best. But if I was 20 years younger, I would seriously consider many places in Europe instead of the USA. But that's just me. While there are plenty of great places in the USA, I could probably write a long multi page diatribe about why I don't like the USA anymore generally speaking. But I'll save that for the Lavender Room lol.....
If I could live 6 months anywhere during our long winters I'd go to the Canary Islands. That's where many European pros spend winter training :-)
Death is easy....peaceful. Life is harder.
