Biking Event in Texas

[Linda Mc]

Several years ago, I heard about a biking week in Texas - possibly in the Hill Country - that was attended by a lot of ultra distance cyclists.   I believe the event took place sometime during the winter months.   I was trying to find this event last night on the internet, but couldn't remember the name or exact location.   Or, for all I know, perhaps the event doesn't exist anymore.   Does this biking event sound familiar to anyone?

Thanks.

You may be thinking about Texas Hell Week which is in March down in the Hill Country (Fredricksburg, TX).  http://hellweek.com/texas.html

 

Also, check out the Hill Country 600 (2nd year) which is during the same time frame and in the same area.  http://www.raceacrossoregon.com/hillcountry 

 

Enjoy!  :-)

Linda,

It's called Texas Hell Week, and it takes place in Fredericksburg TX  this year March 13th - 20th.

Welcome to HellWeek.com!

Great riding.  Every ride begins and ends at the Sunset Inn, in Fredericksburg TX.  A week of riding costs $95, + the hotel, which is $55/night, or $65/night for a double.

You bring your own bars, gu and buy your own food.  But, it's still do-able for under $1000 for a full week of centuries and brevets including airfare, whereas a week at Pac Tour Desert Camp would be twice that.

(PAC Tour Home Page) 

Or, you can do both.

I'm already signed up for Texas Hell Week and have already reserved my hotel room.

Hope this helps.
