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.

Cyclocross racer Missy Hardeman killed while cycling Texas highway

by canklecat

www.bikeforums.net

Texas cyclocross racer Missy Hardeman was struck and killed Wednesday evening around 5 p.m., November 23, 2016, while bicycling on Texas state highway 31 near Hubbard. Missy resided in Waco and presumably was riding the SW-NE oriented highway between there and Corsicana for training. Missy had snagged many top 10 and some 1st place finishes in state cyclocross competitions in open and Cat 3/4 races.
This just popped up on my Facebook feed. I don’t do cyclocross and I’m not sure I’d met Missy but she was a friend of friends. The news summary of the incident caught my attention as possibly A&S relevant.
This time of year on clear evenings the sunset can be blinding near rush hour, either head-on or reflected in the mirror. Wednesday was one of those blindingly clear sunsets and I was very cautious heading west of Fort Worth toward Willow Park for the first half of a ride. I could hardly see a thing in front of me through the …

Study to evaluate Tyler street’s potential for bike lanes

by FAITH HARPER

www.tylerpaper.com

The idea of riding a bicycle from the fringes of Tyler’s city limits to downtown is – frankly – frightening.
Broadway is packed, and Old Jacksonville Highway is steadily gaining traffic.
East and West Corridors don’t look much better on Texas Highway 31, Front Street, Texas Highway 64, or Erwin Street.
And, peddling on Loop 323? No way. …

Houston nonprofit rides to the rescue for refugees, giving them bikes to navigate the city

The first thing he noticed was the sheer number of cars on the massive highways when Assumani Bakari arrived in Houston on a Thursday in February. He left George Bush Intercontinental Airport with a driver at 4 p.m. and marveled out his window for three hours at the stream of thousands of vehicles while he rode across town.
