I realize most of you have little interest in these short movies, unless you like to ride vicariously through some [mostly] pretty scenery. But some of you may live in Horseshoe Bay and for you I issue the challenge of identifying the route we take on this particular ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As hints I will say that the ride begins and ends in Pecan Creek, and winds through HSB proper.

Granted, most of the route was on residential streets (about 3 miles was on a ranch-to-market road that is pretty heavily traveled, but it has a very wide shoulder and a 45-mph speed limit) and the one-photo-per-30-seconds video capture may not always accurately represent overall reality, but this dearth of traffic is actually the standard scenario. It does make for pleasant cycling experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the one-second-per-scene video didn&#8217;t provide enough context to map out our route, here&#8217;s the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.relive.cc\/\">Relive<\/a> video provided by <acronym title=\"My Lovely Bride\">MLB<\/acronym> showing an aerial view of the course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"text-align: center; position: relative;\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"position: absolute; top: 4px; left: 100px; z-index: 100;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/images\/misc\/obscure.gif\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"position: absolute; top: 300px; left: 70px; z-index: 100;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/images\/misc\/obscure2.gif\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"embedly-card\" style=\"color: white!;\" data-card-controls=\"0\" data-card-key=\"f1631a41cb254ca5b035dc5747a5bd75\"><h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.relive.cc\/view\/u2840092420?r=embed-site\">Bike Ride Recap via Relive<\/a><\/h4><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.embedly.com\/widgets\/platform.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that we refer to this particular route as our flat ride.
