Rides are modelled from OpenStreetMap and terrain data and are not field-checked yet. Times here are estimates at a sporty pace. Catalogue access does not mean a ride fits your ability or available time. Low traffic stress includes quiet/shared streets, not just separated paths. Check current conditions before you go. McKinney Falls State Park charges an entry fee and keeps set hours. The Veloway is open dawn to dusk, one way (clockwise), and helmets are required there. The Hill Country rides (Loop 360, RM 2222, RM 620, Lime Creek Road) run on fast roads with a shoulder or none. From June to September, ride early and carry plenty of water.
