Hitting the hills of Bandera and Helotes...





I never thought that a fun vacation consisted of pretty much the same thing I do everyday. The thing is when you really love what you are doing, you will really enjoy it when you can bring that with you. This weekend we took a quick little trip to San Antonio to relax and see something different for a change. We decided to take the bikes and it turned out to be a great decision. Waking up at 6am on a vacation is weird.... Not when you are gonna go climb some nice hills in the beautiful hill country.



We set off on a nice loop that we had taken a few months back when we did the university oaks crit with Mike and Tom. Trying to figure out the turns and where to go turned out pretty easy. We ended up with a good 35 mile ride reaching speeds over 35mph. Overall it was a good ride and the legs are feeling real good.



We saw a deer napping on the side of the road so we quietly took a picture as to not disturb him. So majestic he is.
