I'm working my way south, then west, and will be in Austin for a couple days early next week, maybe monday, maybe tuesday, thru wed.

I'm perfectly willing to ride alone, but I'd love to do a 3-4 hour ride with some local if possible.

I'm a roadie, and not race fit, though not in terrible shape either. I'm willing to ride faster or slower, i dont care... sociable is good.

Anyone riding tuesday or wed, send me a pm.

John

There's two rides each Wednesday in Austin. Here's the details for last week's (but this week hasn't been posted yet, but they should still be happening) --

The first one sounds up your alley.

As for tonight (Tuesday night) the full moon cruise is tonight.

It's gonna be cold, might be wet, and it's far more social and less roadie ... but perhaps you want to stop by.

thanks guys. turned out to be cold and nasty, so we did the non-bike stuff and headed west sooner than expected.

What was up with that freak snowstorm in west texas?? there were snowmen in the median of I-10. the road must have been closed for hours. unreal.

Yeah...it's always a shock when this weather hits. Cold and wet = no riding for me. Too many nice days to have to put up with it. Drive safely.
