Hi, I work at Dell at Parmer and 35. I'm a recreational rider who mostly does trail stuff. I've never done much pure road riding. I'd like to start out with not more than 10 miles, and then work up to longer distances. Looking at several sites on the Internet I have some good ideas of routes now, but I would appreciate any additional feedback on parking.
Wow, thanks for the quick responses! Those are two great alternatives that I'm definitely going to check out. I looked at the lot under I-35 at around 6th street, and that seemed like a good starting point until I could build up my endurance and speed for a longer commute. From there to my work is right around 10 miles. Using the Austin Bike Map and some advice from a bike commuting friend I think I've come up with a route that should work. If all goes well I'll try and ride it this weekend and see how it is.
Thanks again!
Hello,
This is my first post. I'd love to start bike commuting but I live in Buda and work in North Austin near Parmer and I-35. That's too long for me to ride on a regular basis, but I'm thinking I could drive to a point along the way, park, then ride the rest of the way to work. Then at the end of the day I could ride back to the parking spot and drive the rest of the way home. Any little bit helps, right? Looking at the Austin bike map it looks like there are some routes to get from downtown Austin up to North Austin, my question is, where could I park my vehicle all day safely and cheaply? I seem to recall some public parking under I-35 around the 6th street area, but I'm not sure if it's free or safe. Right now I commute on I-35. Does anyone have any suggestions how they would handle this situation?
Thanks,
Shawn
