Trails go from downtown to scenic vistas
\n\"\"
\nMidway between Austin and Dallas off I-35 lies my kind of amusement park, one filled with terrific trails running along rivers, around limestone cliffs, even atop a massive dam. They pass one-of-a-kind attractions from Texas Ranger memorabilia to Victorian treasures to mammoth fossils from the Ice Age. In March and April, surrounding fields explode into seas of brilliant wildflowers.
\nNo wonder Waco is a popular destination; it offers something for everyone. Everything\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s easily reachable by bicycle, and many …<\/p>\n

\nNew bike shop has its grand opening
\nSpring is right around the corner and Denton cyclists emerging from hibernation now have another resource for their biking needs.
\nVelo Republic Bicycle Co. and Service<\/a> had its grand opening last Sunday at 219 Fort Worth Drive, previously The Bicycle and Run Path. Velo Republic owner Gabe Aguilar purchased the building and the old store\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s inventory in November.
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u0153The fact that a shop was closing down made it a little bit easier for us to start a new shop,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Velo Republic general manager Nic Bagherpour said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153We didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want to do it unless we thought it would make sense to open a shop that could offer …<\/p>\n

During the past week I had dinner with several cycling doctors who were considering relocation to San Angelo, rode with a group that included a service member new to Goodfellow, talked to some out-of-town visitors about good routes for trail running and responded to multiple emails and Facebook messages from people asking about local cycling and running activities.
\nThe common thread during all of these \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcnew to San Angelo\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 encounters was that although information is available on websites, Facebook pages and from local bike shops, some newcomers to …<\/p>\n
