Crank ‘N Drank

South Austin Trail Network

Every Tuesday - 6PM

Crank ‘N Drank is a South Austin Trail Network Tuesday evening tradition.

Wheels down at 6pm. This is an advanced level ride, meaning the slowest group is not a beginner group. Crank N Drank is not recommended for beginners. There is a BYOB chill out after the ride. Bring a cooler, your favorite brew, a chair, and some money for Dominoes, Tacodeli, or TCBY which are in the shopping center.

Remember, this is an advanced level ride. Generally the groups are:

  • Group 4/Social: 8-9 MPH with breaks

  • Group 3: 9 MPH with a few breaks

  • Group 2: 9-10 mph with very few breaks

  • Group 1: 10-11 mph with very few breaks

Please be respectful of the riders behind you. IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO KEEP UP MOVE ASIDE AND LET THE GROUP THROUGH.
