Day 2: The Makings of a Cave Man

Lots of talk about the Paleo diet lately. Here's my version: Jimmy Dean Hot Pork Sausage, BP, onion, jalapeƱo and eggs. I'll show you what it looks like assembled and cooked in a minute. How's that for a Cave Man Booyah!

End of Day 1: A Great End to a Day of Ups and Downs

Sitting over a fire at camp site #12 at Pedernales Falls State Park - same site I had last time I came to the park w/ my daughter 6 years ago. Just got done w/ a dinner of grilled sausage, bell peppers, onions, jalapeƱos w/ a fresh salad of avocado, tomatoes, basil dressed w/ olive oil and washed down w/ 2 ice cold Shiner Bock Spring Ales. Got my Thermarest mat and Coleman mummy bag stretched out in the bed if the truck so I can see the stars. Listening to Led Zeppelin Kashmir as the fire goes to coals. Yeah there were some ups and downs today but I'd have to say it was a Great Day spent Discovering Texas on 2 Wheels.

Not too bad. 42.2 miles in 3 hrs 21 mins for a 12.5 mph avg but lots of stops. Will get better as I ride more.

Old Post Rd

Over the river we go. Leg is charley horse. Coming and Going. No blood No bone sticking out Quit bitching and keep pedaling!

Taking the Back Way into San Marcos

Taking Old Stagecoach Road that winds through beautiful ranch and farm land... About 5 miles to go.. And the cramp in my left leg has become a golf  ball right above my knee... Really cool looking!

I'm the Little Man

Stopping at the Hays City Store to get some Gatorade; about to turn east on 150 toward Kyle. 

Halfway around the San Marcos Loop

On FM 3237 between Wimberly and Hayes and just crossed the Blanco River. Having cramping problems in the teardrop of my left quad; something that's been bothering me recently. Otherwise everything is working great and it's a beautiful day for cycling. Remind me to sign up for an iPhone tracker so y'all can log on and track me.

Day 1 of the Hill Country Hop

This is the beginning of a bike tour I am doing a little differently. I will drive from
Texas State Park to Park and do road and mountain bike rides in and around the parks. I am in San Marcos Tx this morning and will do the above 42 mile loop and then drive to Pedernales State Park near Johnson City Tx and camp out there. After a week of rain it's finally cleared up and I'm ready to Discover the Texas Hill Country on 2 Wheels!
