Mountain Biking the Franklins westside


A favorite mountain bike course of mine.  The unofficial trail system is maintained by volunteers.  One day (sooner rather than later, I'm afraid) it will all be developed.  Now though it's a steady climb up from the desert floor (across from the Rio Grande River) towards and into the southern part of Texas' Franklin Mountain State Park.  I stop every now and then to look at the surrounding desert.   Take a little drink.  I could just keep going but what's the point of being out there? After an hour or so, I reach the top.  There , I turn around and blast downhill.
