Ready for a busy summer of rides? We sure are! If you are having a hard time deciding which ones to do, our interviews are a great way to get the scoop on the latest and greatest rides in Texas. This interview, we spoke with Ainsley and David Nelson from West Texas Endurance about their ride on June 14th.

A good race always is successful with the wonderful volunteers. We have volunteers from the surrounding area, including the White River Municipal District and the Marina.We have been working on this event for months and are in the final planning stages for a great ride.
Do you have a map of the start facility showing registration, parking, all toilets, water/snacks, start line?
Visit our website at www.westtexasendurance.com for all of the information you need. We will have portable toilets at the start/finish as well as each aid station. A list of snacks is also on the website.
What is the most rewarding experience of hosting this event?
As cyclists ourselves, we love experiencing new places to ride. The scenery at White River is beautiful.
