Well, I finally got to ride in San Antonio for once. I hooked up with the SA Wheelmen out in Converse for one of their rides. I much enjoyed the ride and the company. The only drawback was that some of the country roads were pretty beat up. On Sunday I hooked up with an old friend of mine from home and we rode in Seguin. I can't say how nice it was to do some riding back in San Antonio. Look foward to doing it again next month!
I to got some black-top in this Sun.

Right on! Is that something organized by a club/team? I know the area, but haven't been up there in some time. You got a map online? Eitherway, I'll copy down your directions for when I hit it up again next month.
No support is available. It's just a damned fine ride. I went of the road twice taking in the scenery. I got the map ( great map and instructions too) out of sawheelman.com through shops than brittons then hit the cyclismo logo then rides look for the "new" ride on the bottom under roadies.
