I just got a new road bike and I'd like to get a very basic bike fit.  One that's similar to what you would get if you bought a bike at a LBS... I don't want to invest in a retul or professional fit right now, just something basic.  Most LBS seem to push for the professional fit.  Anyone know of a good place?  

Cheers!

We got another 0.40" of rain this morning, but now the sun is out!

Well gosh darn! Frog Strangler #2 currently underway in the Walnut Creek area.  This is a seriously violent thunderstorm; it's raining upside down and backwards, intense wind.  

Yeah I imagine there will be some downed trees in Walnut Creek Park - it was crazy!

Is this still available?  I’d be very interested in it!

I found this list of group rides altho I'm suspicious that it may be out of date...

Is there a roadie or triathlon equivalent to this forum anywhere?  I haven't found much...

If not, does any one know of weekly public group rides in central or north Austin?

Gracias!

Heading to Palo Duro with my kiddos next week, really looking forward to it!

Hahaha - just got done riding/hiking Mt. Lakeway... The trail was bomb!!!  😉

Nice and dry!

Enjoy your rides this weekend errrrbody!

Pumped that we have seemed to have dodged a bullet from the rain the last 12 hours! Trails should be good to go!  Looking forward to lots of riding this weekend!

Has anyone been out to walnut recently? How are the trails looking?

I went out yesterday evening... The trails south of walnut creek were unridable in a very short distance from the pavement... I rode Chardog and the Log Loops and they were fine...

Just got notice of this survey by CoA. Give them feedback on this pilot program.

Thanks!  I just filled this out.  In general, I can't stand how the scooters are just littered about in neighborhoods throughout Austin so I'm in favor of any forum to provide feedback both pertaining to the trails and beyond. 

We've had about 3 inches of rain from Monday evening thru Wednesday evening.  Any rules of thumb for when Walnut Creek will dry up?  Also is there an age limit on the ARR trail repair event?  I have an 8 & 10 year old that I wanted to get out and ride this weekend but considering pitching in if we can't get on the trails...
