Description
Lockhart is in the Blacklands Prarie ecoregion where bison once roamed and lies just east of and about 40 minutes from Austin. Fertile soil and the climate is good for crop production which means...lots of gravel roads across farm lands with few cars, few people, birds chirping and cows mooing. Note: Customized routes based on guests' preferences and weather.

Guiding road and gravel tours for TXBT for the past couple years gives opportunities to meet guests from ... moreall over the world and share my best routes on less traveled bucolic gravel roads. Providng guests with professional quality photos of our time together as a gift is a pleasure. You can expect amazing photos at the end of your tour with me.

F.A.Q.
TXBT creates custom cycling experiences including mountain biking, road cycling, city cycling, and most importantly, gravel riding. Founded in 2012 with the goal of spreading the joy of cycling, supporting you in your desire to ride gravel is aligned with that goal. Realizing your vision of this guided tour is our focus.
We learn about your preferences, your cycling life and what you hope will happen. As we know the area well, we create a route that will match that information and provide a bit of a challenge along the way.
With a large trailer especially equipped to transport bikes and related gear, we provide ground transportation for you, your bikes, and if there is an overnight, your luggage etc. from Austin to the ride start. After the ride, you can be transported back to Austin or to your place of residence in the area.
The routes are mostly gravel with some paved roads. The tires should be fatter than road bike tires. A cyclocross or mountain bike would work. There are bikes specifically sold as gravel bikes. Specialized Diverge Comp E5 and a Trek Domani would work too.
As we only have custom rides, there is no set schedule of rides to book. Sometimes we can make it all happen with short notice, but the more notice we have the better…to book the right guide for you, create the route, block the calendar, assign the SAG wagon.
