disappointingtexan Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Hit the hill country today. Ridiculously hot but incredibly beautiful as always. The 07 loves the hills and the curves. I almost feel bad for the cagers and city slickers who may never see this side of my fair state. Stay safe out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMCFieldMP Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Where you travelling exactly? I've down a handful of roads between the Granbury, Glen Rose, Stephenville triangle; but haven't gotten around to getting way down around Austin and such. I've heard the roads are quite good down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disappointingtexan Posted July 9, 2017 Author Share Posted July 9, 2017 I did about a 4 hour circuit from Austin down through Wimberley and around Canyon Lake, then back up through Wimberley and Driftwood and back to Austin. Avoiding freeways for FM roads most of the way. Strikingly beautiful. A criminally low number of bikers out there, but it was hot as fk, so I get it. Always looking to ride in my favorite part of the state! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowpass89 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Nice, good on ya! Triple heat index down in the valley has kept me from riding much, but I want to get back to hill country and ride around Lake Travis soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beemer Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 [div]I could barely stand riding my bike around Austin in July/Aug. You open your front door to step outside and it feels like you just opened a pre heated oven door. It's ridiculous. Talk about sweltering heat! Of course you could always ride to either of these spring fed places to cool off. https://www.austintexas.gov/department/deep-eddy-pool https://www.austintexas.gov/department/barton-springs-pool [/div] Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjeepdrv Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 I live near Austin and have barely ridden over the past month. Park Road 4 is my favorite though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disappointingtexan Posted August 7, 2017 Author Share Posted August 7, 2017 I ran into a guy on Cow Creek road this weekend who suggested Park Road 4. I can't wait to try it! The heat is really only bad when standing still. Those lights... horrible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
