Clear blue skies, not too hot or too cold, and no winds. I felt like I was on top of Texas, probably literally with the elevation heights we climbed. The first 7 miles were a little slow as R was getting his cycling legs back. …

Cycling  – Ride Report: Llano, TX to Castell, TX and Back « Don …
by donbynum
A few days ago, Peggy and I took the truck out and scouted an area in western Llano County for additional great rides.  WOW!  We hit pay-dirt!

Eight or ten years ago the old town of Castell, sitting on the south bank of the Llano River about 18 miles west of the Llano town square was essentially a ghost town.  Today it still has some of the flavor of a ghost town but has become home to a number of Bed and Breakfasts and the old Castell General Store has reopened, mostly…

“Next time you head to the Hill Country, bring your bike.

From Llano to Fredericksburg and all points surrounding, miles of rolling roadways are ready to torment your quad muscles.

One of my favorite routes starts and ends in tiny Willow City, northwest of Stonewall. My husband, Chris, and I do the ride each spring, when we participate in the Hill Country Children’s Advocacy Center Pedal Power Wildflower Ride. The loop, also popular among bluebonnet-peeping motorcyclists, is part of the fundraiser’s 60-mile route.”
