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.

70 mile training ride this morning – GPS track. Nice ride!

by ThatGuyinHouston Scott Speedster S40

www.reddit.com


I hit debris with my rear wheel, which didn’t flatten it but created a swollen area and hole in the tire, so I lost time patching the tire.. then got a pinch-flat about 9 miles short of the end of the ride, so the ride took longer than it should have, but I still enjoyed it.
Didn’t ride terribly fast, but am …

Grapevine Trail System

by zmtthw

forums.mtbr.com

All,
Good evening. I recently moved back to the DFW area and live just a mile or two from Grapevine Lake trail system. I remember riding these trails back in the day when it was half its length and bi-directional. Hats off to all who have picked up a shovel and made it into what it is today! I recently rode the network this past weekend and while the loop is amazing and it really handles major traffic well, I was very surprised that the trail doesn’t allow different directions on different days. I moved from the Denver area and there are a …

St Eds, Underappreciated, underrated and underloved – great for Hill Repeats – Enduro

rugger

I have always said St Eds is probably one of the most underrated places around. It’s got great warm up trails/beginner trails along the creek/meadow/road and a killer hill for challenge, and actually some pretty sweet fun single track up on the ridge between the top and bottom. Any chance trail peeps that handle St Eds can get the brush hog out there for all the meadow trails…it’ll be another 3 months before the weather take care of them for us…you can seen in the video the meadow and …
