One of my absolute favorite places to hit when visiting Austin, Texas is the Walnut Creek Pumptrack.
I still remember my first time there…riding a bike I had borrowed from Buddy (who was kind enough to drive me out there) and just having a great time riding this great spot with Buddy and a bunch of cool ATX locals.
The pumptrack has something for everyone…whatever your skill level, you’re going to find something there you can ride.
But that’s only half of it.
The vibe out at Walnut Creek is just plain awesome.
Jokes, high fives, talking about bikes, people trying new things…beers…it all contributes to the good times.
It’s a place you really have to check out if you get the chance.
With that being said, I came across this video (from Hippie Josh) the other day that seems to really capture what Walnut Creek is all about.
It’s a few years old but no less relevant today.
Check it out.
I miss riding with a lot of these fools.
[…] And if the stars align, maybe even a trip out to Walnut Creek. […]
