Fairdale Weekender Review
urbanvelo.org
Fairdale is a young company headquartered in Austin, TX. The driving force behind Fairdale is Taj Mihelich, a former world-champion BMX rider, artist and musician.

www.houstonpress.com
“The Anthills” at Terry Hershey Park are more than nine miles of single dirt track that feature lots of ups and downs, roller-coaster-style (how the trail got its name), with some portions skirting the banks of Buffalo Bayou. It’s considered an intermediate trail, though some hills are bigger than others. Since it’s a bit farther out, it’s often less crowded than Memorial Park, plus there are paved trails nearby in case you get tired or want a change of scenery.
