I rode my bike downtown today for some photos of the skyline, but most of the vantage points didn't include a view of the crane. I'll probably go back again sometime this week or next weekend for some different spots. I stopped at St. Ed's on the way downtown, rode the boardwalk, hit up the Rainey Street area, finally saw the bike sculpture over by the Four Seasons Residences, then rode the trail and checked out the new hike & bike expansion they did with a boardwalk under the Congress bridge (north shore). I took the trail over to the west side of downtown to check the views over by Lamar I'd been wanting to get and then took a few from the pedestrian bridge. My last stop was going to be the Zilker Clubhouse, but there was some event going on there, so I had to settle for the "secret" skyline spot. Just before you get to the gates of the Zilker Clubhouse, there's a little trail that goes off into the woods. It winds around a bit and then opens up into a clearing with a little pavilion that must have been covered at some point. The view isn't as good as the Clubhouse one since the river isn't visible, and the trees don't allow a full skyline view, but it was better than nothing since I'd rode all the way over there.
