    Mountain biking in Houston sucks, but I still do it. Tons of pedaling & no good downhill reward. We have pine roots in spades, though, if roots are your thing.

    I drag my bike up to Huntsville State Park and the Sam Houston Natl Forest pretty often for a change of pace. Still no good downhills. I need to venture to Austin more. Anyone ever ridden Spider Mountain?

    And a picture of my favorite current bike.

    The only hills I see are on the sidewalks. There are a couple around George Bush Park.

    Had a 20+mph south wind this morning. Thought , ok, it will suck for the first half, but be a breeze on the way back.

    Believing the weather channel hourly reports is for suckers. About 45 minutes into the ride south, the wind shifted and was now at my back. Oh well.

    at least it’s was only about a 10mph wind from the north going back.

    Got back into MTB after many years away. Had to give up MX due to injuries. Still riding my 2005 Giant Reign 2. It is pretty much like new since I had it built years ago and then put it away. Usually ride Sugar Land trails which are great! Last ride was Bridgeland and it was a good change, but lots of roots!

    I actually live right by George Bush Park in Kelliwood and can ride to the trails from my house. They used to have some actual mountain bike trails in there, but I think they have destroyed most of them. The concrete path is nice to take the kids on rides for sure.
    So you've seen this monster? IMG_20211224_093155.jpg
