5Excellent guide for making sense of cycling routes in Texas  Apr 22, 2010 By Alexander Steffler
While I was training for the Houston Marathon, I was sidelined by an injury and took up cycling for a while. I quickly fell in love with the sport but grew tired of cycling around Houston. I soon signed up for the MS 150 and wanted to find places outside Houston to train.

This book is great for that purpose. It lists 53 tours in different sections of the state and at different levels. It breaks up routes into four categories. I list them here in ascending order of difficulty: Family Rides, Rambles, Cruises, Challenges, and Classics. Most of the routes are "customizable": the listings give you advice about alternative turn-offs in case you want to shorten or lengthen a particular route. Also lots of advice about sights, places to take a break, convenience stores, etc. These listings might be out-of-date as the title was published in 1998.

Overall, I've found this a great resource and starting point. I wish the book had better advice about where to park at the beginnings of the various routes for people who are day-tripping -- though this advice would probably be out-of-date at this point, 12 years after its last copyright date.
