Brackenridge Park

Brackenridge Park is not worth the drive down to San Antonio by itself, but if you are already in the city and looking for something to do, its an option.

The park is mainly paved paths with some additional singletrack twisted in between the pavement. As we rode through the singletrack, it was clear that you needed a local. The trails are overgrown and hard to follow. To be fair, it was fall and all of the leaves were covering the path.
