Enjoy scenic Lockhart, Matindale, and Luling. This route serves a wide range of cycling ability from pure recreation to training for long-distance and/or multi-day events such as the MS 150, Tour de Cure, and Mamma Jamma rides. Terrain is mainly flat with a few rollers thrown just to make the ride a bit of a challenge. We will end the ride at Smitty's BBQ which, especially in the Winter, can be a blessing all its own! There will be 2 rest stops with a 3rd optional in Luling.
The intersection of Hwy 80 and FM 20 (Fentress) is the point at which to ride either 36 miles or opt for the longer 50 mile distance. Contact phone - Clark Shaffer - 512 897 0070. There will be que sheets and a gps link provided.
