I was just there last week for riding! Yes, those headwinds are fierce, but if you get it right, you'll have amazing tailwinds, too. I removed my bike computer so as to not get discouraged at my slowness. It doesn't matter.
The bluebonnets were blooming, and the paintbrushes were just starting. We rode in Fredericksburg, Spicewood, Wimberly, and to the east out around New Sweden. And some great city riding in Austin. I decided that the winds were too much the day I was planning to go out to Bee Cave. It was a great trip, and I got over 200 miles in. And I came home to springtime.
Enjoy your trip, and don't let the headwinds get you down. If you go out against them, you will likely end the ride with them at your back, and all that effort will be worth it.
