I have 3 things to tell you, if you don't already know:
FM337, FM336 and FM335
and a 4th thing
Frio Canyon Motorcycle stop.
and a 5th thing
Old Spanish Trail diner in Bandera.
.
I know not what thou speaketh of...

You said visiting SanMarcos TX.
If you do not already know, you should know that is real close to Texas Hill Country area. And you should know about these roads: FM337, FM336, and FM335.
When I was there I had to ask what "FM" stood for and they said "Fhamtahmahakat", so I still didn't know. Later I figured it was Farm To Market, althouh some of the signs said had Ranch Road.
Anyway, if planning to go to San Marcos TX, with your bike. Do look at a map for FM 337, FM 336 and FM 335.
OHHHHH......
I'm not Riding to San Marcos. (It's an 11-hr drive from Alamogordo) My daughter currently lives there and commutes to Austin. I'm staying at a hotel in Austin so we can enjoy the sites.
Thanks for the heads-up....Texas, it's a whole other country!
Ed
I had occasion (2009) to rent bike out of Austin for part of a day.

Was Okay, but not like when I was in Hill Country (2005). That was great.
Ed, Your PM box is full.

Alamogordo to San Marcos
Thanks Redman, I cleaned out some old messages but still over 90%.
I plan on a brief visit to San Marcos....since it will take me the better part of 10+ hours to drive my SUV there. I'll take a Friday off for travel and get there in the afternoon, maybe 5-6pm. I plan on leaving Sunday so it just leaves Saturday to spend with her so I don't plan on Riding.
I got your message, btw. Thanks for all the info...I'll be sure to check it out with my daughter.

I had the roads almost to myself which was awesome, and I hit my favourite set of curves on the north side of Mt Mee that have me loving these Avon Roadriders more than ever. I have never had such a smooth run up/down those curves... so much so I did them twice!
Couple of shots into the sun from Clear Mountain Rd:
Pulled over for a quick shot on Kobble Creek Rd:
And the rest stop on Mt Mee:
Nice scenery Pete, always wanted to visit Australia but it's full of snakes and spiders.....

Great pics! I just took a mine in front of an abandoned building tonight...
What a beautiful bike, I have to get myself an 1100 katana when I can find one. My little 650 Katana is almost ready for a photoshoot maybe this weekend I'll get some pics up of a ride out with the wife

Cheers mate! Yeah those roads start about 5 minutes ride from my house... makes it nice for a quick trip if I get some spare time
The snakes and spiders are ok, it's the drop bears you need to look out for!
The most wildlife I normally see during our rides are ducks, turkeys, and the odd wallaby...
If I remember correctly one of those spiders is called Three Steps...
Haven't heard of that one?
Like I said, they're all good 'n all... but it's those drop bears that are the nasty buggers!
