I am a Missouri girl planning on driving down to Austin/San Antonio and checking out the area and biking the last week of May. I've never been south of Dallas so I'd like a few suggestions in preparation.

1. Bike trails? I am taking a road bike and a mountain bike. If you can steer me to some trails or routes to ride, this is what the week is mostly about! Well, I AM planning on visiting the Alamo.

2. I hear the music in Austin is terrific. Any suggestions where I can find it?

3. Anything else you can add would help. And if any TE'er wants to meet up and ride that would be terrific!

I'm retiring from teaching in Missouri next year and I'm looking for a new place to settle. I've always liked Texas, and it's warm weather. What is the saying...I wasn't born here, but I got here as quick as I could?
