The Armadillo Hill Country Classic in Liberty Hill got a nice break from the weather today. Cloudy skies throughout most of the morning kept temperatures down a bit, and there was even a cool breeze at the start. About one thousand turned out for the ride, organized by the Austin Cycling Association. Well-stocked and well-staffed rest stops, great SAG support, and an overall upbeat atmosphere contributed to a great ride.

An actual place. But if you blink, you'll miss it.
