The ARG Challenge Women's Adventure Race June 23, will take place in
the historic town of Bastrop Texas 30 minutes southeast of Austin.
While the race will be challenging, it will be very beginner
friendly. Paddle down the beautiful and scenic Colorado River, bike
jeep roads and paved roads (there is no technical biking this year),
trek and explore the Bastrop area. There are plenty of
accomodations: camp at Bastrop State Park, stay in a cabin in the
woods, book a hotel, reserve a bed and breakfast or treat yourself
to the new Hyatt Lost Pines Resort.
