24 Hours in the Canyon | The Wheel Brothers – Cycling in Texas
We were lucky enough to catch up with Ryan Parnell of 24 Hours in the Canyon to ask some questions about their upcoming event happening on June 5th-6th at Palo Duro Canyon.
How long has the event been around and how did it start?
First event was in 2007 – I went to the inaugural LIVESTRONG Summit in Austin and they challenged us to do something to help cancer patients in our community.
What was the motivation behind starting this event and who benefits from it?
I was prematurely diagnosed with lymphoma in 2006. Later, it was determined that what I have is spleen tissue left over from a previous injury. Since then I have dedicated myself to helping patients diagnosed with cancer. The Don and Sybil Harington Cancer Center receives 90% of our proceeds and the Lance Armstrong Foundation receives 10%…

24 Hours of Erwin Park
06/05/2010 10:00 AM to 06/06/2010 10:00 AM
24 hours of cycling? All solo? Wow! With a team? Still, very Wow! Terr Firma is hosting a 24 hour cycling event at Erwin Park in McKinney.
We have to ask ourselves if the cyclists in this event are dedicated, special, crazy – or a little bit of all three. I have to go with the latter. This event should be a great one in which to participate and just as good for us wannabe’s to watch. There are several categories…
San Antonio to El Paso TX 2010: Lytle to Uvalde: Pathfinder’s …
Indeed, the paved road out of Lytle initially led us through a quiet countryside.
However, further down the highway, the surface of the back roads changed considerably. I could tell Carl, the Pathfinder was unusually taken aback.
I was not going to elaborate on a wrong turn that added six miles to our ride before we even got to Highway 90 near Hondo. I had after all, added a few more miles in my determination to see the ruins of Old D’Hanis.
However, Carl was itching to defend his reputation as Pathfinder, so here is his account. I will preface his remarks by acknowledging that finding the shortest, but adequate route out of Lytle and through Medina county to Highway 90…
