The Neighborhood Bike Advocacy Committee needs voices to help get more bike lanes in Austin.

If you can, please RSVP to the next meeting which is Thursday May 21. Details and RSVP here: http://bikeaustin.org/neighborhood-bike-advocacy-committee/

Saturday actually looks decent so far (it is sammiched between rainy Friday and Sunday though). Let’s break out our bikes and tackle Cozy Cove for a meager 47 miles of hilly fun! The route is short, but you will feel it at the end. Note that Saturday is also the Shiner GASP ride.

If you want to do something more epic, Bob Brown is considering the LiveStrong Alternative route on Saturday (it’s 105 miles and has considerable climbing). He wants to achieve several Strava Challenges for April and is trying to make up lost mileage and climbing feet due to Day 1 of the MS-150 being washed out. If you are interested in riding this with please email him directly (Facebook Messages work, too). The ride will start and end out of Dripping Springs (from Lake Lucy Loop across from the Hayes County Police Station).

Sunday is the Coffee Shop Ride. Last week 7 of us had a great time and some added on for extra miles. Join us!
