Austin Training Logistics
I am moving to Austin in 1.5 months, leaving the cold winters of the northeast behind, can't wait. I am moving 2 months prior to racing IMMD, not the best time to move but trying to make best of it.
I have read through some threads and talked with some of the bike shops down in Austin. Any further help is appreciated, thanks in advance.
Things i already know:
-- Barton Springs has great spot for outdoor swimming and swimming pools don't seem to hard to find.
-- Driveway series looks really cool.
-- Downtown river trail seems to be some of the best running seems to be about a 12 mile loupe?
-- Parmer Lane to the south gives a nice out and back and cars thin out after a few miles.
What I am trying to figure out and am looking for:
-- Bike routes that are as car free as possible (don't mind driving to a starting point).
-- Bike routes 60-120 miles, don't mind doing loupes.
-- Any spots were you can get a bike and run in from the same starting point.
-- Any spots were you can get a bike, run, swim in from the same starting point.
2024: Bevoman, Galveston, Alcatraz, Marble Falls, Santa Cruz
