Don't forget the Chickin" Coop! One of my favorite to just grab a cold one. Hang out. Almost bought the place a few years ago. All of this within walking distance of the campground!

Hell.....if you're gonna be riding to Luckenbach you might as well ride on over to Willow city loop.



It's a 20 mile loop that you'll wish was triple that distance.  Some of best scenery is found here but You'll only know if go!



Carefull w the deer and turkey's on willow road, night rides are not my favorite on the area either. If I switch bikes I may show up, right now the back breaker is not a 4 day hard riding bike :(

Well, not to worry here's a spot that makes your Goldwing  :stickpoke: look like it came out of a George Lucas film.  Don't bother looking for the keyless start button......you're gonna have to blow out a kneecap to get these on   :bikerider:

No Blinker Fluid needed here!!!

This little gem is a short jaunt (only 38 miles) from Bandera and easily accesible from RR 337 on RR 187.


Interested in going?.......click on the rolling banner in my signature for more info.

Since Bandera is the Cowboy Capital of the world it would only seem right that they have horses for horseback riding.  Watch out for the donkeys.........Gumbo!!

Check out one of the many ranches nearby that offer horseback rides.

Willow City Loop is great...Libby and I rode it twice...different times of the day...different direction.  I would highly recommend.  Don't get in a stare down with a bull.  and if you do..be quick with the clutch and throttle.

I am planning a ride on Friday to Rock Springs to visit the Devil's Sinkhole. They give tours but I need to make a reservation. This ride will take in 337 . I am looking at two different routes. A long route that will take us to Camp Wood and by Bracketville and  Alamo village where they filmed the movie The Alamo with John Wayne. This is a good ride for you that have ridden the Twisted Sisters before and want something different. The other route is a lot shorter takes us from Camp Wood to Rock Springs It's also a scenic ride with a wide road with sweeping curves. Let me know if you want to go. The last tour is at 1pm so have to take that into account.
let me know which RT you would prefer.
