Pre Christmas, but Warming up (a little!) so let's get bundled-up and RIDE!
We'll start from
Fritz Park in Hutto---on the corner of Live Oak St. & Park Ave. On the east side of Hutto, north of US 79. See the start location map below---("click" on the ride title to "open up" the start location map & address).
A
58 mile route at a proposed
"B" social pace -- (14-16 MPH ave.)
This route takes us through the quiet farm/ranch lands of south Williamson County & northeast Travis County. We'll travel on some quiet, country roads (some are chip seal and a little bumpy---air up your ties accordingly!) for a no-drop ride, with re-grouping as needed at the next turn. We'll go east out of Hutto, riding just southwest of Taylor: then riding east & south of Coupland to make a quick visit with the
Donkeys!! Then we'll ride south on the west side of Elgin and then ride northwest on our way back to Hutto.
We'll have a
STORE STOP on the southwest side of Elgin (Doc's Country Store) at
34 miles.
Less than
1435 ft. of climbing per RIDEwithGPS.
