Bike Shop Saturday Cookouts!

Bike Shop Cookouts

This Saturday’s Cookout has been postponed due to weather!

It will be next Saturday,  May 22nd.  It is the first of three  summertime Saturday cookouts happening at the Bike Shop.  We will be grilling and chilling and fixing bikes as usual, too.  We are firing up the grill around noon.

Mark your calendars for June 19th and July 17th as well.   A Big Thanks to Fiesta for sponsoring the summertime cookouts!

Spring Break E-Rock Trip

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

Over spring break we went to Enchanted Rock State Park for two nights of camping. We left Tuesday morning and stopped in San Antonio for lunch and a quick tour of the Alamo on the way.  We hiked two miles to our primitive campsite carrying all of our gear with us.  Wednesday, we hiked up the rock, and we went through the cave on the backside. Upon returning to our campsite we all played in the creek, had dinner, and then went on a star-gazing walk.  Thursday,  we headed back to Houston, with stops at  San Marcos for a quick swim in the river, and in Lockhart for some barbecue. All in all, the weather was fantastic, and we had a great trip.
