Hill Country

[1CavHog]

I live in Temple, Texas and just bought my M50 this week. Saturday my buddies and I are heading down to Llano and Fredricksburg and plan on hitting around Wilow Springs as well. Anyone ride down in the Hill Country? This is the website I used to find routes.

Re: 3 sisters
At least break-in on a tire goes faster than break-in on a bike, lol. Did I mention that we saw tons of deer in the hill country? I have never seen that many before, my wife nearly hit one not 100 yards from the house on our first run. I was hoping that wasn't a bad sign. Another rider in our group had to do a panic stop on one that ran out in front of him, and that was in the middle of the day.

Can run it home down Hwy 4 tomorrow [6/11/08}.

I know where that is, I used to live on Hwy. 4 at Worth Ranch. I'll give you a holler sometime. Thanks for the info, I did like 337 better.

What with my babysister's baby girl graduating high school, wife's best friend's youngest daughter getting married, and wife's brother in the hospital haven't gotten to get on here lately.
If you were on Hwy 4 between Santo and Long Camp you were about 15-20minutes from me/my house I live on the south side of Lake Palo Pinto. off of hwy 2692.
Cheers.

Any recommendations as to which loop is the best?
