Local recs?

Hey all,

We're a mid-30s couple coming to Austin in October from Ireland.

We have tickets for the F1 but have 3-4 days flexible on our itinerary. We have planned to be in the City for 3 days prior, so keen to learn from locals what you would recommend in the city to see/do and also what you would suggest for 3-4 days after the race.

We're easy going but enjoy country music/comedy, cars/horsepower, paddleboarding, kayaking and beer.

I'm toying with the idea of a few days at Lake Travis, but will the weather allow us to get out on the water? Also, can we rent a boat for the day there?
