What is Shammies 'N Koozies? It's riding your bike in the beautiful Texas hill country. It's taking a load off for some music and Texas BBQ. It's relaxing and floating the Guadalupe River with your friends and family. Shammies ‘N Koozies begins with a 45- or 65-mile, fully-supported bike ride that starts at the Wimberley Community Center, 14068 Ranch Road 12, and takes you through beautiful Texas hill country to the finish at the Rockin' R River Rides venue in New Braunsfels. At the finish, you’ll enjoy some Texas BBQ meal, and then grab a toob take a relaxing float down the Guadalupe river. The experience is hassle free. You’ll check your bag full of "float gear" at the start venue in the morning and it will be waiting at the finish for you. Once you have finished the floating, you and your bike (if you select the shuttle option) will be transported back to the starting venue.
