Texas September Mountain Biking

Mountain Biking in the Texas Fall

Well, we are thinking about the Fall.  Even-though, according to official records and if according to the recognized norm, the Fall is still several days away.  Nevertheless the Texas mountain biking scene is picking up steam.

There are new bike shops sprouting around the city — that tells you about the growing popularity of biking in this great city and State;

Then there are the great flowers and views along the bike trails,   Here is a sampling of those views as captured by my trusted iPhone:

Texas Wild Flowers Texas-Austin Strange dogs,

something that looks like a wild version of the morning glory

These flowers were all over along the bike trail along Barton Creek

Here is the collage of the some of the photos – for a quick view – then later on the blog post I will get some of the individual photos showing so you can appreciate the rich ecosystem of Texas in the late summer — especially this year — rather than getting a burnt outdoors this year we have tons of rain and as a result the fields are green and there are tons of wild flowers.
