The first mile was pretty boring, but then we rounded a corner and it all went downhill from there (no literally...the ride out is all downhill...nice on the front end, but hurts on the way back).

Instead of going all 13 miles of the loop (to highway 16) we turned around just past mile 9. Right about then the road started going uphill, and I knew we had a hill to tackle on our way back, so I weenied out and suggested we go ahead and turn back. The climb between miles 15 and 17 was Long and Hard..but we made it to the top and ate our lunch with a view of the valley.

Fields of wildflowers everywhere! |
There were so many wildflowers, everywhere! Everywhere I looked was a picture worth taking. I must have gotten off my bike at least 50 times to take pictures. I tried to get a picture of every type of wildflower I saw, and documented them in my photo album. I used a handy website to figure out the names of the flowers, the Lost Springs Ranch website.

Happy Texas Biking!
