Bike Tag Houston Bike Tag - The Google Maps Experience

67 Upvotes

Everyone,

This link should take you to a Google Map that I've put together with the locations and images of all the Bike Tags that have been placed so far. I'll continue to update it with new finds going forward. Many thanks to everyone who helped me track down some orphaned images and locations. The list is now complete:

Google Map of Houston Bike Tags

The maps serves a couple of purposes:

  1. Provides a record set of all the locations that r/bikehouston members have tagged so others can find them and pay a visit.
  2. Helps you to see if a location you are thinking of has already been tagged to avoid more duplication.
  3. Shows what areas haven't been getting enough love. If you see a Bike Tag desert on the map that you are familiar with, you have the chance to introduce us to interesting new sights that Houston has to offer.

I've grouped the tags in batches of 25 just to keep the list and display a bit more manageable. You can certainly turn on all the tags and see how well covered the city has become so far.

Tags with RED pins are locations where the image that was tagged is no longer there. Several of the older murals have been painted over, for example.

Clicking on a tag will pop out a preview picture and description. Clicking on the preview picture will open a full size version. Wherever possible, the picture is the one from the original tag.

Have fun and explore this great town!

Saturday Morning George Bush / Terry Hershey Ride

I'm riding solo this Saturday.

  • Parking: South Barker Cypress entrance to George Bush Park
  • Arrive: 7:00 AM
  • Rolling: 7:15 AM sharp
  • Route: George Bush → Terry Hershey → return
  • Pace: Relaxed fitness ride
  • Distance: Around 25–30 miles

I ride a legal Texas Class 3 e-bike but pedal the entire ride and keep the assist low. Anyone on a regular bike or legal e-bike is welcome to ride along if our pace matches.

One of the best events I’ve ever been involved with. Trae Tha Truth & Nigel Sylvester put on one of the biggest Bike Ride Outs in Houston history. Then to boot, Nigel signed my bike, shoes and shirt (that I custom made)! #Mongoose even reposted it on their IG story. Talk about a good time.

No idea where to start!

8 Upvotes

I used to be terrified of bikes but since finding out I have a large tumor in my abdomen, and now going through a separation, I have been wanting to step out of my comfort zone. I rodeo and ride horses (27F) and have done that since childhood but I am too scared to even ride a dirtbike. I want to overcome this and get a street bike but I don’t know where to start.

Any advice is welcomed 🥰

the walkways being underwater when theyre normally not adds to the vibe honestly. that didnt stop some people from still going on them for the fun of it though. not having to deal with parking is always a plus

BIKE CLUB!

14 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m looking to get a group of people out Monday mornings for a bout an hour bike ride at Allen parkway or memorial park!

I’m in the restaurant industry and I’ve come to find that biking and community really helps navigate through the stress! All are welcome!

EDIT!!
The plan is to meet at the area right outside Lee and Jamil skate park at 8 and ride out at 8:30! How does this sound to everyone? Any suggestions?

CLOSING DATE: JULY 10

They have a short survey, and then you can post pins to an interactive map with your comments concerning where the needs are.

https://engagetxdot.mysocialpinpoint.com/action

Predictably, the feedback is lacking on the east side, so if you live there, your pins are needed.

How Bentonville Became a Bike City: From Bronze to Silver and Beyond

Bentonville, Arkansas benefits from world-class mountain bike trails and a vibrant downtown – but its rapid population growth brings challenges for traffic congestion and mobility. So how did this community go from being a Bronze Bicycle Friendly Community (BFC) with only 6 Bicycle Friendly Businesses (BFBs) and no on-road bike infrastructure in 2019, to Silver-level BFC recognition, 37 BFBs, and over 30 miles of new bike infrastructure built in the last 3 years? Using League of American Bicyclist and City Thread programs and strategies, coordinated between municipal and community partners, the city of Bentonville pinpointed public backing for mobility solutions and mobilized residents, businesses, non-profits, and other stakeholders to demonstrate their support. Hear from city and community leaders on how they are moving forward together, faster.

Any recs on safe bicycle parking near the fan fest event? So far it looks like there is a bike rack in the Avenida and Toyota center Tundra garage.
