Join Us for a magical Windcrest Christmas Light Bike Night! December 16, 6pm, Windcrest United Methodist Church. 🎄✨

We’re rolling out for a beautiful evening ride through Windcrest’s legendary holiday displays — bright blocks, festive homes, and all the storybook Christmas charm the city is known for. 📚✨

This ride is all about joy, community, and celebrating the season together. Feel free to light up your bike, add decorations, or rock a festive holiday look if you’re in the spirit! 🎅🏾🚴🏾‍♀️💡

A few things to keep in mind:
• Dress warm — Texas cold hits different at night.
• Parking in Windcrest can get wild during the holidays, so keep an eye on this post for any updates on meetup spots or group roll-over plans.
• All levels and all bikes are welcome. Bring your good vibes and your holiday glow! ❤️

Let’s ride, celebrate, and spread a little seasonal magic across Windcrest together.

Happy Holidays from BGDB-San Antonio! 🎄🚴🏾‍♀️✨

🎃 Halloween Safety Reminder 👻

As we get ready for a fun night of costumes and candy, let’s remember safety first — for everyone on the road and trails tonight!

🚴🏾‍♀️ Cyclists:
✨ Be visible — wear bright colors, reflectors, and lights (front and rear).
🧡 Stay alert for kids crossing the street and trick-or-treaters darting between houses.
💡 Ride defensively and predictably — assume others may not see you right away.

🚗 Motorists:
⚠️ Slow down in neighborhoods and near parks or trail crossings.
🚸 Remember — it’s still Pedestrian Safety Month, and kids can appear suddenly.
👀 Stay focused, no phones or distractions.

Let’s make sure everyone — walkers, riders, and drivers — gets home safe tonight.
Enjoy your Halloween and keep those lights shining bright! 🎃🚴🏾‍♀️🧡

Happy National Public Lands Day! 🍃🌎

Today we celebrate the incredible places that belong to all of us! Our national parks, national forests, national wildlife refuges, and so many other public lands. These spaces preserve history, protect nature, and provide opportunities for adventure, learning, and connection.

At San Antonio Missions National Historical Park, we’re proud to be part of that story. From centuries-old mission walls to the flowing San Antonio River, every trail, room, and field here connects us to the people and cultures who shaped this land.

Whether you visit us today or planning your next trip soon, we invite you to explore, learn, and be inspired by YOUR public lands.

Where will your public lands adventure take you next? Let us know in the comments.

“In a word, I was a pioneer and therefore had to blaze my own trail.”

-Marshall “Major” Taylor

Award-winning artist Kadir Nelson pays tribute to Marshall “Major” Taylor, the preeminent cyclist from the 20th century and the very first African American world champion of any sport. Here, Taylor leads a pack of cyclists through New York City streets, each representing cycling enthusiasts from eras past beginning in the 1800s through present day.
