I’m looking for a little help with training resources while in working in San Diego. I am in the midst of training for my first Ironman (LP) and will have to be in San Diego for a couple of weeks. Can anyone recommend a good bike shop to rent a bike while I am there? Are there any group rides that are open and friendly in the 17-19 mph range? Also … I am looking for a pool / masters group in the Balboa Park area. Any Ideas / input would be much appreciated.
Moment Cycle Sport rents nice bikes. The tri club ride leaves from Del Mar every Saturday at 8am. Pacing is what you described. There are also many good resources and group workouts you can join there. Good luck.
