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.

Catrike Descent The Beast of PR4 – Harrowing
from youtube.com by Don Bynum

OK… I now have uploaded the video of my death-defying Catrike descent of The Beast of Park Road 4 to YouTube. I have been getting some static because i-Prune… oops i-Phone,,, users and i-Pads too, could not get to watch me nearly do myself in on the video on my blog. YouTube solves those non-standard i-Phone/Pad issues.  I did remove the most appropriate “Wolf Creek Pass” background music since it was surely gonna be a copyright issue. …

Emma Long Metro Park (City Park)
Austin, TX from www.mountainbiketx.com
The trail is a 9 mile singletrack loop that is unidirectional and more technically challenging than most other locations across Texas. It boasts multiple stairstep climbs and descents, rocky terrain, cactus and mesquite and loose limestone fragments that make traction difficult in some locations. Even experienced riders will have to dismount on this course the first time they attempt to ride it. These are motocross trails, so be on the lookout for dirt bikes sharing…

Biking Etiquette
from DORBA – Dallas Off-Road Bicycle Association by buffalo nickel
One of my favorite things about biking is the people, on average everyone is very nice and friendly.

However, there have been a few times while on the trail that I have been surprised and upset at lack of courtesy of others on the trail…

W.A.R. Report
from Texas A&M Cycling Team By Chad Haga
By Chad Haga The day began slowly, and kind of cold, as the freshly freed students trickled into the middle school parking lot blurry-eyed but eager for the adventure that lay ahead.  Under grey skies, we trekked westward into the forbidden land; for on this day, the rocky and hilly trails of Austin beckoned the…

New Belgium Brewing Urban Assault Ride – Austin, TX

Texbiker.net Posted on December 17, 2010 by Rick AnkrumDecember 17, 2010

New Belgium Brewing Urban Assault Ride – Austin
Presented by Keen Footwear
Austin, TX
Sunday, June 26, 2011
Online Registration Closes Friday, June 24, 2011 at 6:00 PM ET
Welcome to the New Belgium Brewing Urban Assault Ride!

We’re a bit biased, but we’re pretty sure the UAR is the most fun you’ll have on a bike.

First time? No problem! The event has a laid back atmosphere and most folks come for the fun (maybe the beer too;)

Think of it like a day at an amusement park – with the added bonus of a good ride, tasty beer, and lots of schwag!

All registrations include:
1. Entry into the race
2. Donation to the charities (Bicycle advocacy and environmental non-profits)
3. 100% cotton t-shirt – and we have women’s sizes too!
4. New Belgium Brewing drawstring backpack, stickers, and more schwag.
5. Snacks and drinks from our sponsors
That’s right! Beer and snacks are provided after the UAR! We’ll also have plenty of non-alcoholic drinks too!
6. Entry raffle prizes from our sponsors: Timbuk2 messenger bags, Clif Bars, Giro helmets and sunglasses, t-shirts, socks, tool and lubes, New Belgium gear, and much more
8. A huge post-event party with good music lots of contests and all of your new friends

Prizes for top 3 teams in each division.
