MTBiker Visiting from Melbourne Australia!
by reannabrowne      www.bikemojo.com
G’day all,
Like many Australians at the moment, we are taking some time off and heading your way!
As a keen female mountainbiker I’d love the opportunity to be able to hit a couple of local trails while I’m there.
We will be visiting Austin from 8-10th August and I’d love to be able to get out on some of the trails with the locals.
I can’t seem to find any local MTB tours, so thought I’d post something here.
Knowing that I wont be able to bring my beloved Giant dualie from home I’ve done some early investigating and think I might be able to hire something from Mellow Johnnys?
Worst case, I noticed Mellow Johnnys hire roadies and have scheduled rides?
Anyway, just posting this on the hope that I might be able to get some local knowledge / insight, happy to jump on a all girls or mixed ride (should then be such a thing), or even pay for a 1-2 hour tour from a local?
Thanks in advance all,
Reanna

From July 2014 through June 2015, there was an average of about 121 cases reported to the APD every month, a two-per-month increase over the previous 12-month period. During the same time frame, average monthly registrations increased from about …

Cycling JR 1 – July 11, 2015 / Zube Park / Start – 26 miles

After two weeks out it was nice getting out and riding with the group. The sun was out, and so was the humidity! Temps started in the mid 70’s. Took the Fuji SST 2.0 out for a ride. You couldn’t have asked for a nicer day, in Texas, for a bike ride. Hang on and enjoy as we roll the back country roads for our morning “spin class!”
