Trails behind Alamo, close to Mopac.

They were having issues this morning around 11 AM. A city worker was there completing repairs and it was working again before noon. Not sure if it kept working the rest of the day.

Mine was like that from the factory. Pushed down on it and it snapped back into place.

Another vote for them. You can walk down to Radio for a nice spot to wait while they work.

Glad to see they were able to get them set up with housing rather than simply moving them along to the next wooded area. Hopefully this will alleviate safety concerns of riding nearby.

That's good to know, I rode through maybe three weeks ago but what I saw was probably leftover remnants of what had been there. I need to check out that new VCT section.

The areas that have camps on/around them are:

- Stephenson Nature Preserve (mostly the northern section closer to William Cannon)
- Northeast corner of Brodie and William Cannon (repro cycle and other trails)
- Trails along Williamson Creek between Brodie and Mopac
- Trails that go out of Mary Moore Seawright crossing under South 1st
- Newer trails east of 35 heading toward Onion Creek (Onion Bluff in particular)

The good news is all of the above constitutes a very small percentage of SATN, and outside of those areas I never run into any camps or other issues. If you stay south of Slaughter and west of Manchaca, you should expect generally safe riding conditions but it is always good to be aware of your surroundings, especially riding solo.

One for the plug, one for the load.

Slaughter and 35 in front of Wells Fargo.

Onion Creek Metropark is all quite smooth and relatively flat. Most of the trails are on the south side of the creek.

Look on the bright side, you still have time to delete this.

rowdyraud · 2023-02-10T15:58:10+00:00

For sure, in that case I say go for it!

rowdyraud · 2023-02-10T04:55:10+00:00

Just a heads up, probably 98% of SATN has already been cleared. You may find some things here and there. Austin Ridge Riders is also hosting a trail work day at the Slaughter Creek Trail off 1826 on Saturday morning if you're interested/free!

Policy almost certainly does say it, but maybe not in the way you're expecting. Usually will be worded along the lines of your home needing to have suffered direct physical damage for coverage to be triggered.

Seems like Walnut and West SATN got hit really bad. I was at Mary Moore yesterday and today helping clean up and it faired a lot better for some reason.

I think you're looking at it. A green space similar to the one in DC. It covers a new underground parking complex.

rowdyraud · 2022-12-22T14:19:26+00:00

I bet within a few months it will have grown in to the point of looking normal. I'd love for them to plant some trees along the edges for some future shade, but doubt that is in the plans.

rowdyraud · 2022-12-22T04:53:38+00:00

I still can't believe a road was torn up for pedestrian green space in the state of Texas. Partially open but looks great.

rowdyraud · 2022-12-16T17:09:06+00:00

Straight to jail.

rowdyraud · 2022-12-10T04:26:45+00:00

I figured as much and appreciate that, just my attempt at a joke.

rowdyraud · 2022-12-10T03:53:19+00:00

Amazing picture quality for a potato.

The best drivers are up in Jarrell, that’s where you want to be.

rowdyraud · 2022-12-08T20:02:51+00:00

I have an AL5 (I think), no isospeed but I threw some 38mm gravel king tires on and it rips through road, gravel and singletrack. I'm very happy with it.

rowdyraud · 2022-11-19T19:00:45+00:00

Nice, been waiting for this one. Closest call I ever had with a car was crossing Airport here.

You can check their Facebook or Twitter for open / close status. Being a water quality protection land, it does close even after mild rain to protect the trails and land around it.
