Should I bring a bike to Houston?

Hey there, it's been ages since I posted on these boards but I need some advice.........

I live in Scotland but the company I work for is sendign me to work in our Houston office for 2 weeks.

The question is should I make the effort to take my road bike with me?

I'm travelling alone so I will be free every evening, I need to know if it is safe to cycle? is it easy to find somewhere nice to ride bearing in mind I'll be staying at the Hilton WestChase on Westheimer Road, Houston?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm just a social rider, i'm not lookign for any racing or chain gangs, just a bit of pleasant riding to keep the legs ticking over while over eating on hotel food.

Cheers,
Jacqui.

Perhaps you could rent a bike while you're stateside. I don't know the Houston area at all, though. Hope you have a great trip!
