what i have seen of Austin Texas i have enjoyed, really a nice city... Headed west, not sure how much of the day will be spent departing the metro area but imagine several hours maybe more if i get stuck in another clover leaf... starting out from 12th and highway 35 this morning rowers on the Colorado River (little) Austin has a well used Park, the great weather has runners, bikers and rowers all out at the bridge on one of many trails it has to offer... What that same park is like in August with the heat???
Some great hills today, my legs were screaming at me on several of them, will not repeat what they were screaming but it was not too nice... My ride today took me to some gated communities... Pretty nice, if i do 20 today it will amaze me, i did enjoy walking around the capitol grounds and some of the older parts of Austin... Do not know if it is because they support cyclists or what but the drivers are very curteous, be it on a country road or city street, makes riding so much more enjoyable... The city has numerous bike racks where you rent a bike and then drop it off at another place and get a refund... Also has several bike rental places downtown... Need to get in the habit of stopping at certain stores, the distance between them is increasing and the warming trend combined with the hills i am drinking more than double the water i was... I carry enough but need to keep it on hand just in case...
