tom landry fitness center (Garland, Richardson: home, university, costs)

does anyone know what the membership costs are? the office has already closed and was kind of impatiently curious. they open again in the morning, so i will call them then - but just wondered if any of you were members there and if you knew!

thanks!

I have a few friends who are members - I think it's around $85/month.

hey pepper - thanks for the answer. we called today and b/c hubby works there it's $85 for both of us, so that's nice. we're thinking of doing a sprint triathlon?!! crazy. we'll get in shape before we go back home. sounds like a fun thing to do. so they have a training program at tom landry. we're going to check it out monday. we were all over today looking at bikes. it was fun. we drove a huge circle all around dallas - starting in uptown, going up to university park, then up past northwest highway, back down to abrams, then around white rock lake (near your neck of the woods, right? - and i think i saw ted's house, maybe) to garland and then back home on gaston - lakewood is so nice. we saw what felt like everything - well a little of everything. our favorite bike shop was dallas bike shop on abrams. they were nice there and had nice bikes. but we're also new to this bike thing too and it looks like it might be a pricey hobby. we ate at cafe express in uptown - the chicken salad was good. ok - just wanted to tell you everything! haha! thanks again for the reply!

Come back over to the lake on Garland Rd to Richardson Bike Mart - that's where all the serious bike riders go...including my DH. Sometimes you can get a good deal on a used bike (they trade in/up for new bikes).

we stopped in there today, but they were really busy. we will go back by this week to look more. we'll look at their used bikes too. thanks!
