River Roads
The 2005 MTF Poker Run From Hell |
The Sniffin' Rides |
This is a collection of roads that closely follow some of the streams and rivers in the area. It does use a stretch of US90 to make it a little quicker to get back west but the alternative down to Yancey and Moore then back to Uvalde is not very interesting and adds a few miles. A lot of these roads are covered on other routes, but by putting these together, it creates a nice, easy ride. It also allows time for stops at places like Lost Maples Recreation Area and The Texas Stonehenge in Hunt. If you wanted a little longer day, and the place is open, a stop at the motorcycle museum just north of Vanderpool is worthwhile. Uvalde provides a convenient half way point for lunch.
Summary: 222.9 miles (6 hours, 56 minutes)
