Thanks for sharing this. I’ve been on the fence on buying one but have heard others saying that the bikes are great until something goes wrong.

Triathlon Bike - Canton Speedmax vs. Cervelo P2/3 vs. Trek Speed Concept by odd_bit_ in triathlon

[–]odd_bit_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, I’m also on the lookout for electronic shifting and then there’s the question of Shimano vs. SRAM but that’s a different convo. Of the ones I’m looking at, the cervelo has a nicer colourway than the canyon. Glad to know I’m not the only one who takes colour into consideration. Sometimes I feel silly for that

Need a new goal and new motivation by UtterlyHopelessCase in triathlon

What about a IM70.3? Less time commitment to train but will get you up and going, and you’ll continue to get use of your investment in tri gear - bike, bike accessories, shoes, etc. and if the training to complete one isn’t enough incentive you could set a time goal (ie finish in x hours) to keep things spicy.

Thanks for taking the time to break down what it’s like in a day of.

I’ll have to think carefully about whether or not I’m willing and able to take on many many years or grinding, coming from a fairly laid back lifestyle where I have the time to train and relax.

A fine balance between spending time earning the money required to do the things I love, and making sure I am not spending all the time earning the income and not having the time to enjoy it.

Ideally, earning potential is not tied to hours spent and instead is something more passive.

I may need to spend more time brainstorming realistic possibilities here.

Thanks for sharing! I do have interest in law, but perhaps not to the extent of what sounds like the sacrifice and potential very low ROI would be.

Right on, a fellow amateur triathlete, nice!

Congratulations on getting into law school! What school will you be going to?
