Did Tallinn 70.3, magnificent city & family loved it. But with 2 transition zones and swim venue change (safety concerns- I agree with the change, BUT) could add an extra logistical worry for a beginner to deal with. I agree less hassle is better for newcomers to this sport and hence give my nod to your choice of venues @Coach Steve.

Thanks Steven, that's helpful.
Would you consider looking at non IM 70.3 middle distance events? (Challenge, T100, and independent races).
On the road map! Have some coaches lined up to interview re challenge events in Q1 - I am all about the consumer 😛
Mallorca was a great event, but if you are coming from a not “hilly” part of the world get some training in before you arrive.
It’s key or at a minimum some over geared/strengh turbos
Do you know if you European race licence insurance is covered when you race in US? I'd love to do a US race
Yes it worked for me both in Tex and IMFL
oh I have signed up for Valencia - is the drafting bad?
General consensus it was pretty congested on the course - it’s what happens on a pancake flat course 😢
❤Mallorca
Likewise as now 3 x times 🤗
@ 3 times for me also Steve. But decided to have a year away and try Lanza😂
