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.

Oh look a Tweed Ride How droll | Austin Texas Bike Stuff
Over the past couple months there has been talk about having a local Tweed ride since: a) the weather is finally cold enough in Texas, and b) pretty much EVERY other city on the US Hip Cities list has already done it, and as Texas’ creative capital what better way to express our individuality than do exactly the same thing…

bumonabike: Wind Rider 23/12/2009
by P
The next stop was Kent, Texas nearly 40 miles down the road, at that point my planned route left the interstate and turned to the south-east. Tomorrow the wind was forecast to blow out of the north- west. … she asked ” This isn’t good weather for bicycling.” It threw me initially, I was actually enjoying it. Then I instantly knew the right thing to do. “Yes, please.” I said ,” That’s so kind of you.” It blew my whole day’s game plan out of the water. …
