Nails Creek State Park 10/8/08

I was up in Giddings just west of Austin getting some equipment calibrated at the Texas Department of Weights and Measures. I had at least an hour and a half to kill so I decided to check out Nails Creek State Park. I knew I should of brought the mountain bike. Apart from being an awesome looking park located next to Lake Somerville, this park also offers more than 20 miles of trails for mountain biking and hiking. Note to self: Take bike everywhere you go.

Decided to head west towards Austin to get I-35 back down to the Valley. Stopped off at Hoffbrau Steaks off 6th St. for lunch. http://www.originalhoffbrausteaks.com/ Inside was packed, just about every other place during lunch time off 6th. We tried going to Huts then some pizza place right behind it but there was a long wait time. We sat outside and it was amazing to see so many people on bikes. Commuting, riding, on mountain bikes, road, track bikes, singlespeeds, zipping down 6th faster than traffic.
