If you were going to go anywhere in TX to take a cycling trip, where would you go? I haven't seen all of this state even though I've lived here my entire life. The National Forest in East Texas looked really nice and I saw a lot of cyclist and bike routes out that way. I'd also be intrigued to ride in West Texas with those looooong climbs! I also find it kind of pretty out there in its own way...
Hey Mike, you might get your chance to ride in west Texas this fall. Looks like we may be setting up a bike trip for about 3-4 days of riding in Big Bend and the Davis Mountains.
We are going to stay in Alpine, which is one of the nicest spots in all of Texas. It sits in a valley with mountains on 3 sides. Its elevation is around 5000 feet and it will be the perfect stageing point for the rides.
Talk to me about it and I can give you the details, so far anyway.
