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.

This weekends rides: Rain? Red Horn? START TIME CHANGE

by Thomas

steinerranchcycling.com

NOTE: The start time for our Saturday and Sunday rides is now 8:30am as we enjoy colder days.
Saturday is almost certainly going to be rained out. If by some miracle the roads are not wet, it is not raining, and rain is not imminent, just show up at Cups & Cones at 8:30 and we will find something epic that involves bicycles and pedaling really really fast.
Sunday may also be rainy and the same caveat for Saturday applies. If it happens, it is our usual Coffee Shop ride to Red Horn which is 50 miles and is at an endurance pace typically …
