I am Beth, an ultra endurance cyclist and Nordic skier here to share about the events and races that I participate in. This started with blog but I wanted to share more videos so I have moved to making videos. Come along for the journey to see the places that I go.
Hey I really love your video I really love challenges so I think you should do a 100 mile bike RIDE So I wish you luck please do it it'll be a lot of fun Stay awesome my friend
@@christopherbritton2256 I'm glad you love my videos. I love challenges too. I've done plenty of 100 mile rides, but none of them this year and I've filmed none of them. The weather is turning cold so maybe in the spring.
@@mikekelly7340 that's amazing! I went about a year and a half without a car and it was super awesome, but I don't live in an area right now where I can live without a car but I do try to use the car as little as possible.
I've enjoyed the coffeeneuring challenge every year and it's great to see everyone's posts. Love this one! Thanks for sharing, Beth. Enjoy your 2024 coffeeneuring experience.
FYI, the spot where you stopped at 8:15, the path has now been extended another 3 miles into the city of Manor. It ends at a small non de script park called "Ben Fisher" park in Manor. There is a nice convenience store less than a half mile away from the park called Manor Xpress Mart if you need a store stop. Also at 1:23. you passed under Hwy 183 and the little bridge off to your right will take you across the creek. If you then go left (under 183) and then up to street level, there is a wide sidewalk that will take you about 200 yards to Houndstooth coffee shop. There is a local group cycling that goes there after their weekly ride.
It is a nice trail, isn't it? That tall grass you mentioned is called Giant Cane (Arundo donax), which is an invasive exotic species that gets out of control here in Austin. Along the trail one can sometimes see wildlife: road runner, coyote, deer, and rarely feral pigs. City of Austin Parks & Rec makes us proud with this trail
@@bryanparsons9277 it's a super nice trail. I'm glad we went out of our way to go and ride it! I don't think we rode it at the right time of day to see wildlife but that would have been so cool.
Nice video. I think it's pampas grass you saw (the one with the plumes). Why does the trail go nowhere? Beats me. I think there may be some thinking that it will eventually be extended. Also, I love biking in 50 degree weather. Short sleeve is doable only if you are riding.
@@lenajc1 Here in MN 50s is short sleeves for sure, but temperature is really just relative. I would love to see this trail extended. Even if it does go nowhere, it's a beautiful trail that I would ride almost any day of the week.
that looks like an incredibly fun time, and those trails look amazing. I've done camp bike vacations up north Michigan but we stayed at the same campground for a few days, not bike-packing. Still lots of fun.
1. My first bike love was a 1981 Bianchi Road bike (I love that Bianchi celeste paint color) 2. The bike that made me fall in love with cycling was a 1973 Belgium austa. That bike helped me commute to school and learn how to work on bikes. 3. My current bike love is a 2016 hanjo trail5 - my gravel bike 4. My future bike love is Carbon Fiber Otso Voytek. 5. There are so many things to love about cycling but I think two of my favorites are how it can connect people and how you can challenge yourself.
