About Texbiker.net

Texbiker.net covers the news, events and resources for those interested in Texas bicycling.

My bicycling passion was rekindled in 1979 with a Huffy bicycle from Woolco. From early rides around my neighborhood my enthusiasm grew to tackle my unsupported first century. From there I discovered organized rides all over Texas, races and mountain bikes. Many bikes and miles later the enthusiasm is still there.

Thanks to my late wife, Hazel Marie, for her support over the many years, miles and rides.

My primary bike is the Cervelo Caledonia Rival AXS below. My titanium bike is the Lynskey Helix titanium. My newest bike is a Canyon Endurace CF 7 Rival eTap.

Metz & Boyer: The Border Run

By Mark Metz and Ray Boyer | www.crazyguyonabike.com

Day 31: Kountze, TX to Vinton, LA
Saturday November 10, 2018, 63 miles (101 km) – Total so far: 1,804 miles (2,903 km)
Mark here: We rode out of Texas today. Two weeks, almost to the hour. The celebration was muted as it was 48 degrees and raining lightly. We crossed this massive state at its widest point in 14 days, including a layover day in Austin. Seems hard to believe.
The populations of different areas of the country fascinate me as they tell stories of migration patters that go way back. Texas is so big it has different things going on in different regions. A few observations about the Lone Star State

West Texas
People: Friendly,somewhat reserved. Lots of poverty. Ranchers are a …

“Cold” Weather arrived today

Besides recovering from my crash on Wednesday the weather was too cold for me to ride. The forecast says this will last several days.
