Are there any FZ riders (other than me) in Austin? I am up for coffee, breakfast rides, etc. Give me a shout.

Just moved to NW area of Austin from Virginia. Would love to find out about where to ride around here!
Give me a heads up if you intend coming out Leakey way. I'm in Pipe Creek, just before Bandera, and would like to form up.
Not fair, you've got all those great roads ( three sisters etc.) right out your back door....
You're right but there's more to it. I'm just off Hwy 16 and I can hear the bikes riding by right at this moment.
The good news that is bad is that there is so much more good riding around here but everyone coming in, it seems, just does the Sisters. And they often do it "by the book" and miss a lot of what they could have done.
Elm Pass, Tarpley, Utopia, PR 37 and many more usually get overlooked. Too bad. You can avoid a lot of the Training-Wheel Traffic and enjoy the countryside if you just take a different route.
I take a lot of farm roads, etc. when I can just to see where they go. (Yes, I am not familiar with those places you mention.....so I am definitely up for some of that). I'll check back in a couple days here (very busy next couple days) and see what's going on.
I'm going to be posting a report on Elm Pass Road and RR2828 to Medina in the next few days. That presents an opportunity to do some great riding even before the Sisters and presents an option to avoid heavily traveled and heavily enforced 337, on a better road.
Also, I have done a map analysis and and am planning a road recon that may open up a previously overlooked loop from Medina to Vanderpool/Lost Maples. That's still in the future as I have a heavy workload for the next few weeks but will do a recon and will post full details if if works out as I hope it will.
